Intel's Long Awaited BTX Form Factor...
Anandtech goes hands-on with Intel's long awaited BTX form factor. He covers just about everything, from general layout to thermal performance and accoustics. An interesting read for sure.
Quote:
A design that revolves so much around irregularly placed components was slightly unusual for us to see. Although software dictates the exact routing of all the traces from component to component, its very obvious that some very complicated math went into assuring each bridge and component was placed correctly. The fact that almost nothing seems to be at a right angle is a little overwhelming at first.
