Hilko schrijft: "iXBT-Labs heeft de specs van de nieuwe chipset van ATi met geintegreerde video gepost. Het ziet er allemaal best veel belovend uit, hardware T&L, DVD 30FPS hardware met motion compensation.
Opvallend vind ik dat de chipset compatible is met ALI southbridges. Dus Acer en ATI werken duidelijk samen op dit gebied."
