In its simplest form on a single-processor motherboard, a single QPI is used to connect the processor to the IO Hub (e.g., to connect an Intel Core i7 to an X58). In more complex instances of the architecture, separate QPI link pairs connect one or more processors and one or more IO hubs or routing hubs in a network on the motherboard, allowing all of the components to access other components via the network.
The Intel X35 Core i7 motherboards are great, and very fast with DD3 memory and QPI.
Motherboard? or the connection technology? Older processors FSB, qpi, HT. newer Intel processors PCIE.
qpi is a new type of bus for cpu's, replacing the traditional front side bus. it stands for quick path interconnect
they are virtually the same with HyperTransport being better, doesnt matter though because both cpu's can't catch up to HT and QPI's speed

QPI
The speed measurement unit for QuickPath Interconnect (QPI) is Gigatransfers per second (GT/s). This unit is used to measure the data transfer rate between components in a computer system, such as between the CPU and chipset.
The technology that replaced the 64-bit Front Side Bus (FSB) is Intel's QuickPath Interconnect (QPI). QPI utilizes a point-to-point connection and supports multiple data lanes, with configurations typically offering 16 lanes for high-speed data transfer. This allows for improved bandwidth and reduced latency compared to the traditional FSB architecture. QPI is primarily used in Intel's multi-core processors, enhancing communication between the CPU and other components.
The motherboard is main part of CPU. All parts do connect with motherboard.
