I can't read it ( ), so I don't know the whole system configuration - but still, the chipset looks awful promising!

I'll copy/paste the info here:


Stream D Copy64
VIA-KM133| AMD760 |nFORCE-220 |nFORCE-420D
259 557 ....681 970

Stream D Copy64

And what does this have to do with CPU's? Well, not a whole lot - I goofed, and put it in the wrong forum. Mods, I hope you don't mind if I copy/paste this into General.

Yeah, I saw those too. I don't know if I want to wait for the nForce, though.

If those are remotely close to fact, AMD finally has a chipset to exploit thier CPUs
