Een leuke post bij The Register: volgens K-Bench, een of andere wazige Koreaanse site, is de Intel i820 wonderchipset niet compatible met de TNT2, G400 en Savage4 als deze in AGP4x mode worden gedraaid. Ouch!
According to the report, which may be found here, Taiwanese mobo manufacturers say there is a problem between AGP 4.x and a number of existing graphics boards.Boards affected include TNT2, the Matrox G400 and the Savage 4, when running in AGP 4x mode, says K-Bench.
The Camino chipset has represented something of a weight round Intel's neck for the whole of this year.
If true, the difficulties will compound the situation for the Taiwanese firms, which have already been placed on severe allocations by the Great Satan of Chipsets (Chipsetzilla).
Last week, we reported that the Taiwanese firms were also fed up with implementations of the 810 chipset, forcing them to consider options including chipsets from Via and SiS.
