yeah, from what i understand there will be 1156-a and 1156-b sockets. one will have a video-out port on the rear cluster, the other will not. theoretically, you should be able to use any clarkdale cpu in either mobo, but you will obviously need a discrete video card if you choose the one without video-out.

at least let's hope this is the case!

Another Intel CPU another series of chipsets/mainboards. Easy come, easy go. More sales, more dough.

flip-mode is on point. I'm getting pretty confused about intel's socket roadmap.

Also: Long live socket 754!! : )

Edit: WOW a reply fail?? I swear to GOD ALMIGHTY that I always use the reply-button properly. I blame TR >; )

The socket situation on the Intel side is getting pretty messy. I don't see 755 going away any time soon due to low end CPU continuing to ride that train, so that means four sockets for the next little while.
