Thread: Intel Skulltrail

http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets...oc.aspx?i=3216

After reading the AnandTech review article, almost all of the benchmarks dealing with things that most computer users will find themselves doing (including gaming) show no real benefit to the Skulltrail platform. Where this chip/mobo REALLY shine is for people who will be doing heavy development/rendering work in highly multi-threaded applications (e.g. 3dsMax, POV-Ray, Cinebench, Source dev) or heavy compute tasks (e.g. Excel Monte Carlo simulations, etc.). Gamers, stick to your dual/quad Core2Duo with DDR2/3 RAM as the FB-DIMM required by this board increases the latency to the point of negating most of the benefits provided by the CPU itself.

plus it's already been out for a few now to a certain degree, in apple flavor though...

names josh...i play CSS and L4D but it crashes
I am from Alaska, probably all alone from way the hell up here..but I'd snipe you still.

I gotta say, I'm loving this forum. I never been in a forum for years, seriously. I may check this tomorrow

Whats good? Welcome to the forums. Do you use the AWP in CS:S?

i mainly use scout. i always try to get the headshots, i'd like to play L4D with that scoped rifle.

how often do you play?
