That is the beauty of HT. These chipsets could be tested on an nForce system. Likewise, the current nForce south bridge could be used on a Hammer.

dhellman: considering the weak infrastructure support for the K7 when it came out, isn't it encouraging that the chipset support for the hammer is ahead of the game? Of course I'm curious about the value of a chipset without a chip to test it against .......

I don't see how one can be sure that a chipset actually works without having a chip to test it with.
