ATI RD600 for DFI only ?

thorgal · 6th September 2006, 15:24

The future of Intel Core 2 based chipsets is uncertain right now as the industry is shaken up by various new business projects, such as the merger between AMD and ATI.
The word in Taiwan, where I live and run my site TweakTown.com, is that the high-anticipated ATI RD600 Conroe chipset is only going to be provided by one motherboard manufacturer, DFI. According to my sources, Intel has been putting pressure on Taiwan motherboard companies not to produce RD600 based motherboards.

470FSB+ will do for me, and it should be able to do that...

Doesn't matter if other mobo mfgs don't use the chipset the DFI one would be the only one worth buying :P .
