Quick question... can you describe the main differences between the Intel i810 and i815 chipsets? I'm hard pressed to tell what differentiates them... thanks in advance :)

Well, first of all, there are several revisions of the i810/i815 series' that add support for different CPU's and either have or don't have int. video I believe (ie i810e, i815ep, i815e, B-Stepping, etc), but the essential difference between the 2 is that the 810 lacks any AGP Controller where as the 815 does have the AGP Controller. Thats the essential difference between the i810 series and the i815 series.
