Default Re: Any new P35 based boards in the future?

Thank you for all the info. I went and Googled around a bit to get more info on the Intel CPU roadmap, chipsets and so forth.

If I understand correctly, the current Intel "Wolfdale" CPUs will be the last LGA775 based CPUs. The "Nehalem" range will move to LGA1366/1160. The current P35 chipset will be replaced by the P45 chipset. I can't seem to find info on which chipset will be the last to support "Wolfdale"-only CPUs.

My question now is, if I want to upgrade before the LGA1366/1160 range, should I wait for the P45 based MBs, or should I go for the P35 now? My other concern is that I only have DDRII-800 RAM, which is brand new, and I would like to re-use it on my new MB (DDRIII is just to expensive right now).

TIA
