Gigabyte X48T-DQ6: Intel X48-brikkesett og Linux-kompatibilitet

[Prognatus]

Phoronix har testet Gigabyte X48T-DQ6 og funnet at X48-brikkesettet er kompatibelt med Linux. De konkluderer bl.a. med:

 

"While this motherboard chipset isn't debuting until next month, it's already well supported by Linux and we had no problems running it with Ubuntu 7.10 and other desktop distributions shipping recent 2.6.21+ kernels."

 

...men sier også:

 

"Right now the X48 isn't a "must have" for Linux enthusiasts, but even if you're not going for the QX9700 or QX9770, but are interested in maximizing the lifespan of your system, it may be in your best interest going with an Intel X48 motherboard for its 1600MHz FSB support. The rest of the folks should hold out for the availability of motherboards with the ICH10 and ICH10R Southbridges, which already have a few support patches in the Linux kernel."

High-end-brikkesett er som regel godt støttet av alternative operativsystem.
