To hell with the Teron and Pegasos, check this out

(includes picture, FAQ, forum, specs...)

(Same specs w/block diagram)

Since IBM's CPC925 uses HyperTransport, they can use nForce south bridges.

This is a full blown computer folks. PCIe replaces both AGP and PCI/PCI-X. As you can see, this board supports PCI as well. PCIe is compatible (or rather identical) at the driver level. In fact NVidia's PCIe video cards are just their AGP 8X cards with a PCIe bridge, no change to the software was necessary.

They have various parters like Terra-Soft Solutions listed too. These are small companies. They seem to want to recruit more support from similar companies  :-D  :-D

mhh yes . . . estimated price, for a production batch of 1000 pcs or so?!?



Could be quite reasonable actually. The $4500 price is for a test board only (from a smaller batch), which is quite low!

If the same board is also ordered by companies like TerraSoft, who knows? Could be on par with Apple's prices, and would include full schematics.

DCE would probably want to make their own CPC925-based board.

More power to them, I guess  :inquisitive:
