Integrated Graphics from NVIDIA Back In Style

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the old-made-new-again dept.

Hack Jandy writes "After a couple year of silence, AnandTech has confirmed that NVIDIA will be bringing back Integrated Graphics Processors this year. NVIDIA's last IGP chipset was based on nForce2 and received much praise all around. The new IGP, 'C51,' will be based on a stripped down version of nForce4 and includes PCI-Express. The article also goes into some detail about ATI's new IGP chipsets RS482 and RS410."

    I wonder if they will release proper specs for it this time.....
    Last time they pretended their integrated ethernet controller had some super-secret part in it that had to be protected....
    For graphic controllers you might get away with such an argument (although I personally don't think it holds even there) but for a simple ehternet controller it just made them look stupid.
