    Testing at TechCorp this week

    Running Skulltrail boards X58, some new Nvidias as well with Nehalem chips until Thursday, I hope to use FSX as one of the benchmarks if we have time. I will keep you posted

    I hope you do get to test FSX with the Nehalem as i'd like to know how they scale with the latest 45nm (dual, quad cores EO stepping). I'm gunna upgrade to Nehalem (coreI7) but i'll wait till second steppings are released.

    That's right, by the middle of next month the Core i7 goes on sale. I don't think all the X58 and Nivida boards will be out but some will. Mfgs are wanting to dump current stock of X48s, and P and G series boards to make way for the new stuff.
    By the way, I'm having a blast...hehehe. I can't believe these guys call this work:costumes:
