VIA, SiS, ATI and NVIDIA used to make chipsets for FSB CPUs up to Core 2 and Atom ... but all this ceased when Intel brought out the Nehalem. I still wonder why they have not granted permission to others to mate with their CPUs? Perhaps now they use internal memory controller, a crappy northbridge will not choke memory bandwidth, and OEMs might just select the minimum price. But I really have a feeling they are against NVIDIA most of all. Why? AMD seems content for NVIDIA to make stuff, even though NVIDIA are a rival for their GPU division.
