Ok, I've gone with the new Intel 975X chipset on my new motherboard.what new features does this allow?
Anything special that could not be done before?
Answers:
Main thing about your board. I'm sure you've heard everyone complaining about having 4GB of ram in Vista and only seeing about 3.2? That's because their boards don't have memory mapping and your board has one of the few chipsets that does. If you put 4 gigs in your machine with Vista you will see 4096! That chipset been out for almost 2 years so I wouldn't call it a new chipset. Here's an article about the 975X you might find interesting
