Nvidia C19 vs C55

[jshuck3]

Been waiting for an nVidia 590 Intel board for a while now and Asus finally announced theirs. However, people are already saying wait for C55 as opposed to the C19 that the new Asus board uses.

I can't find any concrete descriptions of why C55 is better than C19 other than...it just is. Does anyone have any specific reasons why I should be waiting for C55?

Thanks

C55 will most likely be a 90nm part while C19 is a 130nm part. if you know anything about electronics you know I have said enough already.

the C19 doesn't overclock well, C55 supposedly will be a lot better.

Apparently, C19 doesn't overclock beyond 300-320FSB. Which is pretty damn lame for a high-end-enthusiast chipset. The 975X/P965 make it look like crap.
