now my brain is really sweating. :'(
too new for me, I will fence sit on that one.
decided on the i7 3770k for a CPU. MB, would like simple ATX maybe
with bluetooth. Current cpu is a core 2 quad. This whole project is
snowballing on me. Started out as just a OS update.
have 8gb of ddr3 1066 I can use to start. ( may not be compatible,
homework in progress)
sort of looking at the Asus Sabertooth but it does not look like it
does bluetooth.
Why do all these new MB's seem to have display outputs ? And there
seems to be a lot micro ATX and uATX. saw one extended ATX. That
would only fit my server case.
thanks

thuderbolt is intel's newest data connector. there's a few things I like
about it (personally) mostly is that it's a really dead simple docking
station type connector. You can push data over it at uber high speeds.
and while usb3 is great n all, I suspect your future multi-drive raids will
move over from esata to thunderbolt.
for one.
you can daisy chain like a madman... ideally your laptop that supports
thunderbolt would connect to a 30"+ screen, that is plugged into your
keyboard mouse and also pluggs into your uber fast hdd raid array.
you can save data at highspeeds to the drive all the while serving up 1080p
video to your screen w/o dropping a frame. (nice)
but on a desktop, you loose the fun and fancy docking station via a single
wire. instead you can leverage multi-monitor support like gangbusters.
serving up hd video to multiple screen transmitting data at high rates etc.
at this stage, I've notice the current crop of mobo's do support
thunderbolt but not the full spec I think they have the smaller intel chip,
which is just sad, but it'll be interesting how well they perform.
