Nvidia MCP79 chipset to power Intel Atom Netbooks

NVIDIA MCP79 will be the first 3rd party chipset to support the Intel Atom processor. It will greatly improve the integrated graphics performance of the netbooks.

Judging from the past performance of NVIDIA chipsets which are good for it's IGP and comes with PureVideo, it will definitely improve the display quality. THe only concern would be the power consumption of such chipsets as NVIDIA chipsets are always power hungry. Will NVIDIA powered Atom netbooks be able to last 7 hrs of operation or probably just 1-2 hrs? That remains a big question mark.
