X-Bit Labs heeft een roadmap gepost van ATi IGP chipsets. Deze zijn op het moment nog niet erg populair omdat weinig moederborden er gebruik van maken en degenen die dat wel doen geen bijzondere features bieden. Komend jaar moet dat echter gaan vanderen met de introductie van nieuwe north- en southbridges. Eerste prioriteit is het upgraden van de huidige IGP340 Pentium 4-northbridge met PC2700-ondersteuning. Daarna komt er hele een nieuwe generatie uit met ondersteuning voor de 800MHz FSB, AGP 8x, dual channel DDR400 en geïntegreerde Radeon 9000 videokaart. Deze RS300 zal ook als single-channel versie te krijgen zijn, maar heet dan RS300VE. Verder staan er een aantal Athlon 64-producten en I/O controller (southbridges) op het programma:
North Bridges for AMD Athlon 64 Platform
RS380: AGP 8x-supporting tunnel with integrated RV250 (RADEON 9000) DirectX 8.1 compliant graphics core. ATI will integrate additional 64-bit memory controller in the tunnel and will allow end-users to install a memory module as a frame-buffer.
RX380: An ordinary AGP-8x tunnel without integrated graphics capabilities.
I/O Controllers
SB300C: ATA-33/66/100/133; Serial ATA-150; 6 USB 2.0 ports; 3Com Ethernet 100Mbit/s; 6-channel audio; advance power management capabilities; A-Link/2.
SB380: 8x8 HyperTransport links; 6 x USB 2.0 ports; 10/100Mb/s Ethernet; PCI 2.3; Audio; etc.
SB210: IXP200/250, but pin-to-pin compatible with SB300.

With Intel shifting to its new dual-channel DDR Springdale platform in the second quarter of 2003, its current mainstream single-channel DDR, 533MHz FSB (front-side bus) products will be repositioned down to the entry-level to medium-range segments. SDRAM chipsets and motherboards are expected to be phased out of the market by then.
During the copying process, 321 Studios takes three extra steps to appease its Hollywood critics. DVD X Copy inserts electronic controls into copied DVDs to prevent them from being duplicated further. It embeds a digital watermark that can trace the source of any file transmitted over the Internet to the software's licensed owner. And it inserts a disclaimer at the beginning of the recorded DVD, telling viewers that the disc is a backup copy intended for personal use only.
The RADEON 9100 is a high performance mainstream graphics processor for desktop PCs. Products based on the RADEON 9100 GPU will provide the outstanding 3D gaming performance, image quality and support for the latest game-enhancing features like DirectX 8.1 shaders. Its powerful architecture, including four parallel rendering pipelines and two geometry engines, is designed for optimal performance in the mainstream segment. If this sounds reminiscent of the RADEON 8500 products, you are correct! Our partners continue to see strong demand for products based on our R200 architecture, so we are re-introducing it as a part of our 9000-family of products.
