The „new“ chipset which looks like a derivation of QM57 chipset to us has support for 14 USB 2.0, PCIe 2.0 8X and 6 SATA 3Gb/s ports. The Arrandale integrated graphics will be there with PAVP 1.5 support, whatever that is.
The new chipset also supports Intel AMT 6.0, Brainwood memory support, Intel rapid storage technology and Intel AP-p. The launch date is Q1 2010 and the only mayor difference btwen QS57 and QM57 is that the later supports Clarksfield Quad core and the QS57 doesn’t.
