I think Skulltrail is the codename for the dual socket enthusiast platform, not necessarily the CPUs themselves. More like a chipset, like Bearlake.

And Skulltrail has to be one of the craziest names ever! What's next? Necromancer? :roll:

 

[NMDante]

Ssshh....
Necromancer is the name for the GPU....

AND THAT IS FROM AN INTEL EMPLOYEE!!! 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O

LOL.

Yeah, a real low ranking Intel employee... LOL

:lol:

If they wind up naming it Necromancer, somebody will be in some serious trouble.

Maybe. I still have yet to visit all the rivers and valleys that Intel named most of their CPUs with, when I was training in Oregon. I didn't actually know there was a Willamette river until I was there.

Actually, I think the GPU name will be "Dungeness" for the type of crabs that are there... LOL

 

[exit2dos]

I think I'd leave it to Fudman to name the types of crabs.

If Intel ends up naming a chip Pediculus, I'm joining Baron and Mrs. Bytch in the AMD fanboi horde.

I've had enough of them that I was seriously thinking of opening a commercial crabbery. 8)

 

[exit2dos]

I bet you were just itching to say that.

 

[SEALBoy]

You guys should be careful what you name your poor excuses for a graphics chip. You don't want to piss off the Necromancers of the world. Call it "Peon" if you want to go the WarCraft way.

That platform will be atleast $2500 before you even consider ANYTHING else.

Name something in the desktop segment that "needs" this. And seriously.. don't say rendering, etc.

I hear high res pr0n runs best on Skulltrail. :lol:

 

[babybudha]

I want then to name the next big processor "Beavertown" or "Muffville." Then I would buy it.

Since they name them after geographic locations... maybe they can open a factory in Intercourse or Blue Balls, PA.

IF YOU BUILD IT HE WILL COME

I know, it's great how many games utilize quad cores now... :lol:

 

[Scotteq]

Hmmmm..... Beavertown.... Muffville.... Intercourse.... And now....

IF YOU BUILD IT HE WILL COME

Time for you to take a break, guys.
