Today is nForce 2 day, it seems.. or at any rate we'll be hearing a lot about it this week. You might remember back in December we brought you an early review of the first non-reference nForce motherboard, the MSI K7N420 Pro. nForce is a motherboard chipset made by nVidia, who we more readily associate with video chipsets - of course, it (usually) has onboard video. It was fairly impressive but for a variety of reasons didn't take off - largely because it didn't really fit anywhere into the market. Too expensive for the integrated-motherboard crowd, not fast enough video for the high-performance crowd. Anyway, nForce2 is here now, sporting AGP 8X, Twin Bank DDR400 support and Serial ATA, with hints of onboard GF4 MX video and FireWire for good measure. nVidia have an official nForce2 page as of a few hours ago, but there are articles springing up all over the net: TheInqirer, VIA Hardware, HardwareAccelerated, DigitalDomain (press release), HardOCP, Bjorn3D, EE Times, AnandTech, TheInq again, TomsHardware, AMDMB, 3DVelocity, Tech-Report, ExtremeTech, DeviantPC, FiringSquad and 3DGPU. Golly.
