Après le du PC portable Toshiba Satellite X205-S9359 fait par notre confrère Anandtech dont je vous parlais dans cet article (cf : Test : PC portable Toshiba Satellite X205-S9359)et bien celui-ci vient de publier un nouveau test sur la carte mère Gigabyte GA-X38-DQ6. Comme son nom l’indique cette carte mère est basée sur le tout dernier chipset haut de gamme d’Intel, le X38. Un chipset qui doit normalement être lancé officiellement le 24 septembre 2007. Notre confrère compare la Gigabyte GA-X38-DQ6 avec l’un des meilleures cartes mère avec le chipset Intel P35, la Abit IP-35 Pro. « Intel has certainly been on a roll for the past year, and from all indications there’s a good chance this will continue for the foreseeable future. Even though they are looking down the barrel of AMD’s K10 gun, with Barcelona scheduled to launch next week and Phenom later this year, they are continuing to release product at a brisk pace and seem unfazed by what their competitors are planning. It is this focus that has brought us the Core 2 processor family and a string of new chipsets since June of 2006. Instead of taking a breather or resting on its laurels, we will see several new chipsets and processor families over the course of the upcoming year as Intel continues to march to the beat of a company looking to annihilate everyone and everything in its way. While you can debate the merits of their product lineup, potential performance improvements, costs, or what it all really means for the consumer, you cannot deny their tenacity in trying to address just about every sector of the market they serve with a class leading product. »
