Chw.net sends in two slides about the 790GX chipset. From the charts, we see that the AMD 790GX will be 33% faster than the 780G. In addition, with sideport enabled, it can boost the IGP by aorund 10% more.

The 790GX will also support both CrossFire X and Hybrid CrossFire. In addition, it supports 1080 and high quality video processing.

Other features include AMD Overdrive, RAID 5 on SB750. There is also Dynamic Power Savings and Deep Sleep support.

The performance of 4 games, Crysis, World in Conflict, Unreal Tournanment III and Supereme Commander are tested against NVidia GF 8200 and Intel G35 in the chart below. We can see that both the NVIDIA and INTEL are nno match to the 790GX.

sometime i wonder, why cant they just die shrink a previous generation mid-high end gpu on to their mobo as igp and they can garantee a 100% win on igp/chipset market

example add 3850 as igp...if they do that, heck i dont care if the amd cpu is slower than intel, at least i got a very good video card, not a 3 generation old mid-low end card and now put into igp...geeze

D you mean putting a separate IGP chip onto the mainboard just like waht SIS XABRE did in the past?
