| Topic: The ECS PF88 Extreme H | ||||||
| Cool geek gadget of the evening - ECS have done it again with being inventive, this time, it's a motherboard that allows you to swap from using a Pentium 4 CPU with DDR2, to an Athlon 64 with DDR. You just drop in another daughterboard, RAM and CPU, and the rest remains the same. Pretty danm awesome if you ask me. Oh yeah, and it also has dual PCI Express. http://www.anandtech.com/tradeshows/showdoc.aspx?i=2431&p=6 In the past ECS have released boards that have both PCIe and AGP on the same board, and I myself have used their K7S5A which had both DDR and SDRAM, which was danm useful for an upgrade path. Certainly has merit, but given the cost of the CPU daughterboards, it could almost be cheaper to just replace a motherboard, unfortunately. |
