PCI 3.0 Coming; Intel gets the Green Light.

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the faster-faster-and-faster dept.

pjbass writes "This story on ZDnet discusses the next I/O subsystem planned for PC's. It will be PCI 3.0 once making it to the consumers, but it is now known as Arapahoe, or 3GIO. Intel Corp. is responsible for making the technology, and boast its performance will be about 6 times that of PCI2.x, getting up to speeds of 6.6 gigabytes per second of bandwidth initially, with promises to scale more once the technology is mainstream."

    This is total BS, I submitted this exact same story 5 days ago, but the idiots rejected it. And now, today, here it is.
    Wouldn't it be possible that somebody else submitted the exact same story six days ago? And this is it?

    dont bother submitting stories. i've argued with the cmdr. even though they say you have good chance of getting your story in, you are right, it is bullshit. interestingly when i submitted a story it was about a college kid who build a mouse using ethernet. screw usb and firewire i said. check this out. i too was rejected. cmdr told me after i railed on him that something like 98% are rejected. (more like 99.8% i think). anyhoo 3GIO is crap. call me when they have single strand fiberoptic links. over and out.
