<< According to this info, Springdale chipset intended for Pentium 4 processors will come out in the middle of 2003 and will replace the Brookdale chipset family. Although Intel has at first claimed that Springdale will be ready by the beginning of 2003, now they have decided to postpone it a little bit, and to implement DDRII+ support, instead of the initially planned DDRII. Thanks to it, Springdale will be able to work with 533MHz DDR memory, which will ensure the bandwidth of 4.3GB/sec, i.e. will fully correspond to the bandwidth of 533MHz Quad Pumped Bus of the future Pentium 4 CPUs >>
and my favorite. Prescott!
<< As for the supported CPUs, here we come across some info on the new Prescott. According to our reliable sources, Springdale will work with both: 0.13micron Northwood based Pentium 4 processors, as well as 0.09micron Prescott based Pentium 4 CPUs, which are due together with Springdale, that is in the middle of 2003. Prescott is supposed to become the first non-server processor core featuring HyperThreading technology (Thread-Level Parallelism), which will be moving to the desktop sector from the server processors. >>
ah, so this means a new pc is in order for 2003....😉
