ExtremeTech has taken a look at three motherboards: two with the new X38 chipset and one with the P35.
We'll be taking a look at a pair of high-end X38 boards from ASUS and Gigabyte. Curiously, Intel's own X38 motherboard is still in development, apparently having some teething problems, though Intel anticipates shipping its own boards in the November timeframe. Given the delay, the motherboard makers have had extra time to tune their products, and it shows, as both the ASUS and Gigabyte boards seem quite refined for first releases.
