Intel Skulltrail preview
Written by Andreas G 02 May 2008 18:48

Intel Skulltrail is the ultimate platform for the high-end users. It has two sockets that can house two Intel Core 2 Extreme processors, and four PCIe x16 slots with support for up to four graphics cards working together in either SLI or CrossFire. We will explore the latter in a future article, but until then we've compiled this preview for you. We've taken a closer look at Skulltrail and see what hides beneath the heatsinks and coolers.

"Intel Skulltrail. Just listen to it. Now, this is a teaser, and we'll start by teasing you a bit. Just taste the word Skulltrail. It sounds so hostile, in a good way. It's something meant to totally wipe out everything in its way, including the good 'ol Quad FX platform from AMD not to mention the Skulltrail predecessor, the V8 Media Creation Platform."
