Intel still shows the i820/i820E chipsets as being their primary mainstream system chipset, with the Tehama (i850) filling the performance segment through 2000 and into the first two quarters of 2001. In Q3 2001, the roadmap shows that the Tulloch will replace the i820/i850 while the Almador will replace the i815 in the performance/mainstream segments.

Are the Tulloch and Almador DDR chipsets? If the timing is right, Intel will be 3 quartes to 1 year behind AMD adopting DDR.

Joe - Re: "Motherboard manufacturers believe that the i815 has good potential, however current pricing has them wondering if it can gain any significant market share. In addition, Intel has indicated that they can only supply 1 million chipset per month to Taiwanese manufacturers, causing some distress."

Here is a Tom Uberclockermeister review on FIVE i815 Motherboards:

Five Boards with 815/Solano Chipset

And....here's Anand's review of a SIXTH i815 Motherboard.

ASUS CUSL2 Socket-370 i815 ATX

Doesn't look like anybody is having a problem with i815 Availability, Cost or Performance.
