Rebuilding system have a Q6600 cpu so new a motherboard that supports Trim in win 7 64 bit, has to be socket 775 to fit cpu i have. What specificly iam i looking for? I mean do only certain chipsets work with trim? What does the motherboard need to support to run Trim so a XM-25 80 gig will work best.

I have Socket 775 and Gigabyte MB EX38-DS4 chipset X38 and Southbridge ICH9R. My MB is discontinued, but go to Gigaybyte forum and ask what present motherboards support AHCI, probably all I would assume. http://forums.tweaktown.com/f69/ http://forums.tweaktown.com/f69/

I just called Intel to ask about AHCI, and the customer service rep said "all new Intel motherboards support AHCI".

All recent desktop Intel storage controllers support AHCI but some OEM/companies may not provide the option of enabling it.
