but does this mean it'll support 8x AGP, dual channel memory, and the other goodies??
edit: no mounting problems here - waterblock uses spring mounting rather than clip 
(unfortunately i'm back on air for the time being - waiting for my new case to come (disassembled loop earlier this week))

Not that 8x is needed over 4x.
Not sure on the DC RAM though.
Heck a 2.5ghz PM can hang with an FX-55. Thats with single channel ram, on a basic 855 MB.

i dont' see a good way to mount a gigantic heatsink lol, if people are going Dothan then we are gonna need some monster sink cuzz that beast is gonna get OC like it's never seen before. It would be cool if it can get dual channel though, almost all new system now have dual channel, just a good way to get extra bandwith.

OMG I WANT ONE
This would be SUCH good news for Intel (and for us if it allows for overclocking). I bet Asus will supply a special H/S bracket so you can fit normal S478 cooler on it.
Would-be so sweet...only need to get a different (proven) mobo and chip, and Dothan is mine

People stop whining about mounting heatsinks! The few rare Socket 479-boards we've seen so far came with a NORTHBRIDGE heatsink to cool a OCed Pentium-M! There's no 'cooling' involved compared to a P4. My 1.6Ghz Pentium-M lappy comes with a very tiny heatsink/fan/vent hole for the CPU and at 24/7 full-load folding it only uses the fan at it's lowest speed, a desktop northbridge heatsink will be like a sp94 on a P4 willamette...

Maybe for the CPU string.
I really hope we can make use of the 478 boards' oc options
