That Llano test board looks like a laptop motherboard...it'll be great to see some numbers off that hardware.

Looking at it in person ... that'd be one hellahuge laptop!

Not sure how you'd use the full PCI-E x16 slot on it, either.

My scale was a bit off...maybe a server board?

Nah, it's a mule prototype board that has various connection options so different functions can be tested. It's big, it's got odd connectors, it's not a final design in any way, shape or form.

Ahh, OK...thought it looked sorta odd, not much like your standard desktop board.

caveman-jim · Oct 20, 2010, 12:02 AM

Yeah, look at the fact there are no memory slots, plus edge connectors on all four sides; nothing for final production about it.

I think people are getting to caught up in the baord. Instead I would direct your focus to that miniscule heat sink. Small chip low heat... When I saw this my gut reaction was that this sucker could be passively cooled with some of the heatsinks out there and a good air flow case.
