For those craving more performance than can be delivered by four processing cores and a single graphics card, Intel has introduced the new Dual Socket Extreme Desktop Platform. Formerly codenamed "Skulltrail," this platform supports two Intel quad-core processors, and offers a choice of multi-card graphics solutions.
First unveiled at the 2007 Intel Developer Forum, Skulltrail combines Intel Desktop Board D5400XS and Core 2 Extreme QX9775 processors, and is mainly targeted at power-hungry gamers, who can use multiple graphics card solutions from either Nvidia or ATI. In addition to PC gamers, the new platform is also targeted at 3D animators, digital audio artists, and high-definition (HD) video editors who create video games for consoles and desktops.
