on the LGA1366 socket and the Intel X58 chipset. This next-generation
32nm infrastructure, supporting six multi-cores, will deliver maximum
performance to ASUS X58-based motherboards via a comprehensive BIOS
upgrade. Chie-Wei Lin, General Manager of ASUS Motherboard Business
said, “This new processor architecture accommodates up to six cores and
significantly improves CPU performance. By enabling the architecture in
our award-winning X58-based motherboards, we can deliver one of the
fastest personal computing platforms in history and we are very excited
about it.”
Advanced CPU Performance And Enhanced Graphics Processing
ASUS’
entire range of X58-based motherboards is ready for the new 32nm
processor. For maximum CPU performance and advanced graphics processing
enabled by the six cores, users simply need to update the BIOS of their
existing X58-based motherboards.
