I was checking the Tom's Hardware review about nForce chipset and I was amazed of the good stuff that's packing. If it works, it will force Intel to get a better chipset, don't you think?

I think that Intel has slept long enough. It's time to get a new chipset that's strong, reliable, and fast.....
 

Another impressive fact is that nForce in its current version is actually not only supporting AMD processors. In actual fact you can just as well run Intel's Pentium III with it and be happy, which might not be quite as surprising if you remember nForce's close family bands to the Microsoft's upcoming Xbox, which, as we know, will be powered by Intel's Pentium III processor. We are not supposed to know about this, because Intel turned down NVIDIA's request for a front side bus license for its illustrious Pentium-line. So far about the rumor about NVIDIA's pro-active decision to build a strategic partnership with AMD. It looks more as if the guys didn't have a choice. Time will tell if Intel made the right decision for a change. We have our doubts.
