I think at the moment, the current standard is 4.0GT/Sec? <br><br>I forget the exact units but 8 would be preferably if your going to double the cores and that or some kind of guarantee from the motherboard manufacturer it would work with 8 core processors. 4 cores would probably do be plenty, but, I already have a 4 core Q9550 and going from a 4 core to a 20% better 4 core processor doens't seem worth buying a whole new motherboard, new ram, new power supply, new case(might as well), etc.<br><br>In that case, I'm virtually making a new build and if I am making a new build, I want it to at least be twice as fast as my old pc. 20% faster cores + double the cores would do the trick for sure probably.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wes]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 4th 2009 1:17AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on MSI intros new motherboard with True Blu-ray audio support]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/03/msi-intros-new-motherboard-with-true-blu-ray-audio-support/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/03/msi-intros-new-motherboard-with-true-blu-ray-audio-support/</guid><description><![CDATA[And how is this new MSI?  Most motherboard manufacturers use the ALC889 chipset already.  No software player can take advantage of Realtek's proprietary driver.  Cyberlink and Corel have stated they will support the chipset in a future update to their current products.  ArcSoft has yet to commit anything, as they still support the Xonar.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chris]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 4th 2009 11:42AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on MSI intros new motherboard with True Blu-ray audio support]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/03/msi-intros-new-motherboard-with-true-blu-ray-audio-support/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/03/msi-intros-new-motherboard-with-true-blu-ray-audio-support/</guid><description><![CDATA[sweet]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[lori]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 4th 2009 12:04PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on MSI intros new motherboard with True Blu-ray audio support]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/03/msi-intros-new-motherboard-with-true-blu-ray-audio-support/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/03/msi-intros-new-motherboard-with-true-blu-ray-audio-support/</guid><description><![CDATA[FAIL, Asus already offers mobos with HDMI.
