Fresh reports suggest that
nVidia indeed has a chipset product lineup planned for Q1 2010, that supports socket LGA-1156 processors, codenamed
MCP99. In addition to this, nVidia will also serve up two new LGA-775 chipsets, codenamed MCP85 and MCP89. What's common to
all these chipsets is that they embed an integrated graphics processor (IGP). Some of these chipsets feature a 64-bit wide memory channel dedicated to the IGP's memory needs, apart from the 128-bit wide (dual-channel) system memory controller, on the LGA-775 platform. The dedicated memory channel allows the IGP to match entry-level graphics cards in terms of performance, without eating into the system memory. We predict this will be implemented in the same way AMD 780G, 785G and 790GX does, with dedicated memory chips present onboard. The LGA-775 compatible ones will further feature dual-channel DDR3-1333 standard supportive memory controllers for system memory. The MGPU will be named inside the GeForce 200M series.
