Intel may launch 845GV chipset supporting FSB 533 MHz

In September Intel plans to launch the improved version of 845GV supporting FSB 533 MHz. In October we also may see the 845PE and 845GE supporting DDR333.

According to mobo makers, Intel mentioned that, besides 3.06 GHz Pentium 4 in the fourth quarter, it plans to release new 845GV. Actually, it´s the same integrated 845GL chipset, but supporting FSB 533 MHz and DDR266. 845GV will cost $2-3 more than 845GL and won´t allow to use add-in graphics cards.

Motherboard manufacturers were surprised as Intel decided to release one more chipset, as the company planned only 845GE and 845PE for the second half-year. Therefore, some believe that Intel may release it to compete with SiS. 845GL sales volumes have not been large, and SiS650 and SiS651 have been adopted better. It´s understandable as they cost $5 less and support FSB 533 MHz along with add-in graphics.
