    Well, the onboard memory already removes the single largest bottleneck of integrated graphics solutions, so this might just be a feasible chipset for gamers on very tight budgets.

    Phenom 9950 probably, as well as the apparent extra overclocking potential with the new southbridge some how. HD3300 IGP looks interesting they were always designed to have at least a small memory buffer.

    oh sweet so does that mean we will see some 790FX boards that could have the SB750 on it or is there going to be a chipset coming out the will replace the 790FX?

    While I agree that the onboard memory is a great idea, it isn't designed for gaming and sits on a very narrow bus. It will free up your system memory for other tasks though.
