Gigabyte readies SATA-III, 6Gbit/s motherboards
750MB/s will be a reality this year.
The boards that are in prototype phase are based in the P55 PCH and aimed at Core i5 processors.
Gigabyte employs a chip from Marvell to handle the SATA-III duties, which is also a provider of SATA controllers for hard drives.
These are good news for SSD lovers which are now nearing a bottleneck with SATA-II, at 375MB/s, overheads unaccountable in this figure.
Gigabyte already has 6Gbit/s boards @ Tweaktown
