Which chipset in the Mac Pro?

Is it the 975x or the 965? Can anyone see the motherboard in one of the display units?

Those 2 are consumer chipsets, I think there actually is a workstation version of the chipset which is used by the Mac Pro... 🙄

The only option is the Intel 5000X

Someone boot Windows and run CPU-Z! 😀

But yeah it looks like the 5000X.

Thanks. I had missed that announcement with the other Core 2 Duo stuff.

The Dell Precision 690 that I've ordered in preference to the Mac Pro is built around the 5000X. I would imagine the Mac Pro to be the same.
