Nvidia's MCP7a GeForce 9 series mGPU Review
|
Posted on Wednesday, October 15 2008 @ 15:18:47 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck |
As we said, Nvidia's chipset is built on the 65nm TSMC process but what bumping material it uses we are unsure. Nvidia has already admitted problems with its mobile products, but recently HP has since issued specific warranty replacements for slimline desktop PCs that exclusively contain Nvidia integrated graphics products. Kept properly cool, there should be absolutely no problem unless you're one of the few who want to stuff one of these boards into a cramped HTPC setup with very little airflow to be as quiet and low profile as possible. In that situation, we'd advise being wary, but outside of this we doubt anyone else will ever have a problem.
On paper, the Nvidia GeForce 9-series IGPs stop quite a way short of being everything we wanted and were told it would be released earlier this year, meaning it's more than a little late. Despite this though, MCP7a does still appear to be a great chipset on paper provided you're interested in HTPC features. Using Nvidia's on words though - a slideshow is one thing, but actually using the final product is another - so check out our Zotac GeForce 9300 review to find how we actually get on with it.
