The Mother Board

[THRASHER2]

"The introduction of the most recent NVIDIA chipset with integrated
graphics for the Intel platform has been expected for quite some time. Code
named the MCP7A, news of the chipset goes back to the middle of 2007 when we
actually thought we would see it before the end of that year. Obviously
some delays happened, either on the technical or legal side of things, and
the product was delayed long enough for us to be writing about it officially
for the first time in October of 2008. In fact, it is that delay that
actually gave AMD's 780G chipset the IGP edge; but that isn't exactly
relevant while we are talking about Intel-based platforms today.

Obviously the biggest news about the MCP7A product came with the official
announcement yesterday of Apple adopting the chipset in their entire line up
of new MacBook and MacBook Pro offerings - something I have been predicting
since July.

But just as important to us is the release of the desktop variant of this
chipset, now officially known as the GeForce 9400 and 9300 Motherboard GPUs
(I really can't stand that term) that we are reviewing today. We actually
had three different mATX motherboards from MSI, Zotac and ASUS show up for
our testing, all which will get some attention today.
