Ted - RE: "I assume the chipset is made by an oem, and if it is not functioning well, is this usually the fault of the chipset design or the manufacture of the chipset or both? If it's a design problem is AMD the one responsible for correcting the problem? And if it is manu., then is it the oem's problem?"

AMD makes the chipset in question. Nowadays (I don't know about the past) OEMs never make their own chipsets for personal computers. OEMs may have a motherboard, with a certain chipset, specially made for them.

If it is a design problem, AMD would be the one responsible for correcting it, like Intel had to correct the i810 chipset (and Camino, and Profusion, and Profusion, and Profusion).
