dale, Via started out their V-Link with 133 MB/s or 266 MB/s bandwidth, which was 1x. Thefuture implementations will be 2s, 4x and 8x of that Take a look at this presentation: platformconference.com slide 16. It looks like Via is planning to have a northbridge with: - path to CPU (P4 bus, EV6, HT) - AGP path (up to 8x) - high speed (4x = 1 GB/s, 8x = 2GB/s) - I am not sure if this can coexist with AGP or it is either one or the other) - path to southbridge - path to memory DDR (1 or 2 channels) Can you count all those pins? My god. Via wants to be the center of Universe. I have a feeling that they are biting a bit more than they can chew. Joe
