AMD's first Intel mobo to arrive in December

DFI preps RD600 board

AMD'S RD600 chipset is AMD's first Intel chipset, ever.

From what we heard it looks like DFI will be the first with the retail board. This chipset has been delayed for quite some time and some companies like Sapphire decided to drop the project. It doesn’t look like AMD will make more Intel chipsets in the future, so this might be the last one, but we might be wrong about that. Things change.

RD600 should be the best overclocker on market and should even surpass the great scores of Nforce 680i SLI. Nforce 680 is already a better overclocker than Intel own chipsets, the 975 and P965, and RD600 might be even better.

DFI is committed to make a board around it and this usually means it will be a hell of a good overclocker. We also learned that memory manufacturers are keeping expectations high for this one, as it might be the best overclocker so far. µ

If I go Core 2 Duo, this might be my next board.

Actually it's old news, I only thought theINQUIRER heading was interesting

Here you go if this is more reliable "DFI confirms ATI RD60" 25th July 2006
We just got back from visiting DFI here in Taipei, Taiwan and they had some interesting information to share with us.
Naturally, one of our first questions for DFI was if planned chipsets from ATI would still go ahead or be canned due to the merger of AMD and ATI. The good news for consumer choice; we can confirm that ATI’s upcoming codenamed RD600 chipset with Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Extreme support will go ahead. DFI are currently working on the first versions of their RD600 motherboard and testing is going well.
