Among other things, the new nForce boards will be expensive. Get a clue nVidia, no one will pay over $200 for a board, these aren't like your graphics cards.
Assuming, that is, Nvidia prices nForce 2 right. So far no one outside Nvidia has published any indication of what the chipset's components might cost. The original version was pricey, and the high-end functions highlighted by the rumour sites suggest that nForce 2 isn't going to be bargain basement either. If that's the case, it may be some time before the chipset appears in systems most folk can afford, recession or no.
