For a long time NVIDIA's nForce chipset was the chipset to have if you were using AMD CPU's. True, there were some alternatives including a few chipsets from ATI, but they did not have much of a chance in pushing NVIDIA away from the AMD chipset top spot. This all changed when AMD bought ATI. While NVIDIA pledged to continue to support the AMD platform it quickly became obvious that their focus shifted to the Intel platform. This left AMD with a problem. It left them with a void. After a partner that has been providing the foundation for your CPU's and also been a large part of the success for those CPUs leaves a void, how do you fill that void?
