Computex 2005 Early Bird Coverage

Today was the official start of this year's Computex, but as always
we were able to get a sneak peak at the show before the floor actually opened. With the show a day barely underway, we've already seen the first AMD BTX motherboard, a number of NVIDIA G70 graphics cards, an Intel motherboard that can be switched to an Socket-939 board by just purchasing a single card and the details of ATI's new multi-GPU chipset."
For those of you interested in the cheap RamDisk tech that Gigabyte is showing off at the show, the SPCR forums have a slight bit more information... http://forums.silentpcreview.com/viewtopic.php?t=2 2448
Here's a quick summary:
SATA Type: Unknown as of yet... Email sent to AnandTech about this topic...
Maximum transfer rate of DDR200: 1600MB/sec
Maximum transfer rate of PCI Bus (not used in this incarnation of the technology): 132MB/sec
In addition, DDR266 and others should slow down to function at DDR200 speed without a problem.
Um, the "ATI's new multi-GPU chipset" link actually points to a slashdot article entitled "AMD Athlon 64 Dual Core Chips Released".
