So last month we heard about the two new processors from Intel the Kentsfield and Clovertown processors. And as we all know the Intel Core 2 Extreme Quad QX6700 was the first processor and actually the only one at this time that is based upon the quad-core Kentsfield so we all know how special the thing really is. And also at the same time Clovertown Xeon 5300 series was introduced at Super Computing 2006. Power and performance are the two basic things that
most of us look for in a system. And I think with Intel's 5000X chipset, the Tempest i5000XT that offers many key features, including support for (2) Intel® Xeon® processors 5000/5100 series; FBDIMM support; dual PCI Express x16 slots, as well as multiple PCI-X slots; built-in FireWire (1394a), Audio, SAS, and SATA-II with RAID, and onboard dual Gigabit Ethernet ports. For just a short time, the Tyan Tempest i5000XT S2696 have already been into various tests, that most came out good even paired out with various motherboards. All reviews and forum communities so far have nothing but good words for the two. The capabilities proved to be broad and just plain unlimited. For a price that is approximately $550 USD I can say that it is well worth it.Tyan Tempest i5000XT S2696
