Any consensus yet out there in the real world?
They've been out for a few months now. :)

Has reliability improved for the non-Intel chipsets these days? I still
remember when VIA, SiS, ATI, nVidia, and such used to cause us fits and
were to be avoided
I have a good ole Intel 865 in my current PC, no issues...
Are the newer ATI and nVidia chipsets looking like good solid

Still a bit early to tell on the N680 and RD600, but initial indications
for
the 680 look positive.
NVidia's chipsets have reached a point where they are pretty solid. I'd
still avoid anything Via...SiS is hit-and-miss, and I have no experience
The 680i boards are fantastic

You mean more than one x16 PCIe lane, right? That's the one edge a 975
board
has over a 965.
As far as the rest, that is simply not correct. Performance? It's the only
intel chipset that officially supports DDR2-800

Subject: RE: [H] Best Core2 Duo mobo?
You and Chris are misinterpreting what I wrote. I never once stated I was
comparing the 965 to the 975. I'm comparing the 965 (and ICH8/R) to the
competing 680i, RD600, AND to an enthusiast-grade chipset that Intel SHOULD
have that is native for C2D
I don't need or want SLI though. and the cheapest i680 board at Newegg is a
whopping 250 bucks. ouch..
OK :)
Those are valid points. The more I play with the 680i, though, the more that
it's hard to argue with it being the definitive it board.
