Not only are we seeing new chipsets, but attached are a new CPU socket called 775, a new bus Technology called PCI Express, a new Graphics Card slot called 16X PCIe, and a new memory technology called DDR2. Those are just the highlights, since we are also seeing additional changes attached to these technologies - like new heatsinks, new power supplies, High-Definition audio, and Matrix Raid.

There are a handful of sites covering the Intel 925X and 915 chipsets and the LGA 775 CPU news today. Here is a preliminary list of the coverage we have seen so far.

PS: Oden, check out THG's comments on the Itel effort to catch up with AMD 64 -with the implemention of ddr2 and fsb& pci vcards- the cost performance comments got my attention along with the release dates:
