Those looking forward to constructing a PC around Intel's Nehalem-based mainstream platforms might need to go back to the drawing board as the Larabee builder has decided to delay the release of its Havendale processors. Expected to be launched together with the Lynnfield processors in Q3 2009, the Socket 1160 Havendale CPUs, which feature integrated graphics, are now scheduled to enter production in Q4 2009 and hit the stores in early Q1 2010.
The delay is also affecting Havendale's mobile-prone brothers, the Auburndale CPUs and this should be great news for AMD as it is planning to introduce its IGP-loaded Swift chips in the second half of 2009. Now bring on those Bloomfields. source

Intel’s first Nehalem mobo is X58
|
As we known, Intel’s next gen processor will be Nehalem, and desktop Nehalem will be Bloomfield. It is a 45nm process technology 4 core CPU, integrated with memory controller, SMT (Simultaneous Multi-threading) up to 8 processing threads, and w/ 8M cache. It has been revealed in IDF 08, but at that time no the supporting mobo is still being kept in secret.

Today we find out that the first Bloomfield supporting mobo will be Intel X58(with ICH10/R) coming out Q4 this year. Because Bloomfield have already got memory controller integrated, so north bridge will be simplified. The biggest point of the board will be the odd lay out, dual channel, Triple channel DD3 supporting and Dual PCIe 2.0 X16 or Quad PCIe 2.0 X8.
The north bridge have couples of new features, but Intel keeps ICH10/R as its south bridge, so there is nothing more to say about it.
Also here is a pic we believe it is a X58,which leaked to the web earlier.
