Digitimes says Nvidia parts will slide into new year

DIGITIMES' sometimes reliable sources are telling the Taiwanese newspaper that Nvidia will delay shipments of the MCP72 chipset for AMD platforms until January, alongside the MCP78.

Since there are only a few days left in December, this isn’t a deductive feat comparable to Sherlock Holmes solving a fiendish criminal stratagem set by Professor Moriarty but more of a reminder that Nvidia had tried to get the parts of the door this month.

Separately, Digitimes suggests that Nvidia has been talking to board makers about getting the cost of GeForce 8800 GT-based cards down to better compete with DAAMIT’s Radeon HD 3800. µ
