thread, Flurries of news releases re. Rambus/Intel: Intel Revises Desktop Chipset Rollouts (02/09/98; 4:06 p.m. EST) By Mark Hachman, Electronic Buyers' News Intel has slightly altered the rollout and names of unannounced desktop chipsets that are scheduled for release later this year, industry sources said. According to revised roadmaps provided to its customers, the launch of the desktop 440BX chipset in the second quarter will be followed by the 440GX in the third quarter. The GX will be a minor product transition which increases the addressable memory from 1 to 2 gigabytes. At about the same time, Intel will launch the 440EX, a stripped-down chipset designed to connect to "Covington," a 266-MHz Pentium II processor with the external cache removed. That chipset was formerly known as the 440LXR. Reportedly, Intel is also considering the use of the term "Pentium II Junior" as a brand name for Covington. ...... Following that will be "Camino," a chipset designed to interface to DDR SDRAM as well as Direct Rambus DRAM. The chipset will also connect to a Slot 2 interface that will accept Pentium II modules with two Katmai processors inside, the sources said. techweb1.web.cerf.net Ibexx
