Modern technology is like the sea. There are high waves when the latest upgrades and chips are released, followed by a brief lull as we wallow in the calm before bracing for the next.The LGA1155 release and accompanying P67 chipset was a definite wave. It was such a phenomenal performer that it would be easy to call it a tidal wave, but with the current problems in Japan we shall respect them and refrain from such metaphors.If you've just come back from a six month sabbatical in a cave let's bring you up to speed.In January Intel released the successor to the LGA1156 socket processors, the (confusingly) named LGA1155. It was met with a clamour of deserved praise before it emerged that the number 5 and 6 SATA sockets had problems with data integrity. This was disappointing for such a long-awaited product and a smudge on Intel's testing procedures, but they issued a swift recall and, now fixed, the P67 is reborn with the B3 suffix.
