Review: Viperlair
_______________
The 'Lair has been full of buzz since Intel's announcement of the Core 2 Duo (C2D), you could see and feel the excitement from the editors as the time came near for the unveiling. Then the bottom started to fall out, Intel launched the C2D alright, but they left a legacy of LGA-775 motherboards in the wake that could not support them. With bated breath we waited for the final word of what was and what was not supported. Unfortunately my hope for re-utilizing my Asus P5WD2-Extreme Intel 975x chipset fell short, as the revision I had could not be modded to support the new processor, that yes, was sitting on my desk in its Intel Blue box.
