1-2 Chipset Overview
Built upon the functionality and the capability of the Intel X58 Express chipset, the
X8SAX/C7X58 motherboard provides the performance and feature set required
for dual-processor systems with configuration options optimized for intensive ap -
plication and high-end workstation platforms.
The main architecture of the X8SAX/C7X58 consists of an LGA 1366 processor
socket, the Intel X58 Express North Bridge chipset, the ICH10R South Bridge, and
the PXH/V IO Bridge. With Intel QuickPath Interconnect technology built in, the
X8SAX/C7X58 is one of the first motherboards on the market that offer the next
generation point-to-point system interconnect interface, replacing the current Front
Side Bus Technology, providing substantial system performance enhancement by
utilizing serial link interconnections to increase bandwidth and scalability.
