Drool Nforce FX

Nforce FX
I think me wants one whenever it comes out.

 

[bunnyfubbles]

Even if it is real it'd have to come out fairly soon. Who knows maybe it will be a very "cheap" solution as if it comes out later it would have to compete with MP K78s... MMMM, inexpensive dual nForce...

DAMM!!!!! I have a 760MPX setup and would love to have that.

Any more info any where else on it???

I was just ready to click order on a nForce2 board...Guess I have to wait for info on this bad boy 😀

sweet lookin board

Ooh! Look at the AMD 8131 chipset and RAID options! 😉😀 AMD 8131 supports up to 6.4GBps bandwidth (on nForce2 could only peak at 800MBps), and you can also use 32-Bit, 33MHz and 64-Bit, 66Mhz (or ANY combination) at the same time without performance losses. Drool, this and Dual Bartons... Fork up the $$$!

I'd go ahead with nForce2 unless you want to wait for a while. I don't think this will be out real soon (probably 3 months away at least).

Oooohh, That looks delicious 😉

Umm..
no native serial ata (seems they're still using a chip from a 3rd party manufacturer)
still has 2 eide ports (i'd prefer 1 for older cd roms)
floppy connector (just buy external floppy and use usb port)
serial, parallel ports? 😕
no firewire in back plate.. still use pins in mobo

The rest looks nice.. snoogens 😀

I think you are right about the wait time, if they even ship them at all. This leaves me stuck 🙂 If I wait 3months for the nForce FX I should just suck it up and wait 3 more months and hold out for the Athlon-64's appearance. Ah decisions, decisions...

anyway, anyone knows how much 1 of these babies cost?😀

A lot, but looks to be well worth it 🙂


The problem with the 760MPX chipset is it is based on the old 760 single CPU chipset. So the AGP and memory controler are not as strong as a KT333, KT400, or nForce2. So this board should allow the 64bit/66Mhz ports, updated sound, dual Athlon's (maybe 333Mhz bartons), and of Course nForce memory controller.

I think the 760MPX boards were around $300 when they first hit, so I would guess around there, give or take.

amdzone says they e-mailed nvidia and asus and this board ain't happening
apparently they don't think there is enough demand
