Digit-Life has posted a review on the NVIDIA nForce DDR chipset
The chipset traditionally consists of two chips: North and South bridges. But here instead of banal North bridge and South bridge we have nForce Integrated Graphics Processor (IGP) and nForce Media and Communications Processor (MCP). Either device is positioned as a processor, that can take a part of the CPU´s work. Exactly such approach for designing chipsets is, in our opinion, the most rational. The performance increase requires more advanced mechanisms than usual buffering and pipelining.Read more
