nForce4 - To Be Introduced On October 19th?

October 1st 2004 | nForce4

NVIDIA will introduce its flagship chipset on October 19th. It’s interesting to note that this company as well as ATI likes to launch on Tuesdays. I guess they want to give people a break from the weekend before they deafen us with their announcements. Thank you, guys, for giving us time to relax. Nvidia will introduce two of its three chipsets - its mid range Nforce 4 Ultra and Nforce 4, while it will leave the Nforce 4 SLI launch for a later date.

There are two different reasons that we are hearing for this. One is that Nvidia has some software problems with its SLI driver while Nvidia’s argument is that it actually doesn’t want to put other single PCIe slot chipsets in the shadow of the flagship SLI performance king.

These chipsets will support all sockets for Athlon and Opteron CPUs including 754, 939 and 940; will support DDR 400 memory; one to two PCIe graphic ports; S-ATA and S-ATA RAID; Sound Storm 7.1 and Nvidia LAN.

Nforce 4 will be born on the 19th October
Nforce 4 SLI will come later @ the Inquirer
