Intel X79 for LGA2011!! LEAKED specs

probably similar reasons for the SandyBridge chipsets. lightpeak... and other reasons

and mobo manufacturers will add their own USB3 chips
 
Looks more like an X68-class chipset (to me, anyway).
Plus: no mention of Thunderbolt/Light Peak support, which is already included on the latest Apple MacBook Pro.
 
No mention of QPI interconnect - which is the key interface on SNB-E. Some vague discussion about dedicated storage PCIe lanes, which sounds like nonsense and irrelevant, as QPI has so much bandwidth that it's difficult to use it all on a single CPU system.

Looks like shens to me.
 
It looks suspicious to me. I've read there'll be LGA1356 as well with triple-channel RAM. Also that LGA2011 is also the server platform and that the chipset(s) will be used for both that and desktop.
