Nforce3 (all) is optumized for nvidia cards...
But they don't hamper ATI's performance any....
Nforce4 is so highly optumized for nvidia cards it hampers
performance on ATI cards
KT890/X200 not rolling out yet......
But also as it stands KT800 and Nforce3 ultra are slightly faster then Nforce4 / KT890 but they new chipsets are more feature rich like SATA2 etc...
