Intel has a long history of producing excellent chipsets. They are stable, offer excellent features and are more versatile than competing chipsets.

Apparently, you can’t blame the chipsets for this; maybe they would’ve been just as competitive as their predecessors, 865/875, if the aforementioned technologies didn’t hold them back. Even after that, the 915/925 chipsets has exciting technologies integrated in them for the best possible feature set. Full article at CoolTechZone
