PCI Express and AMDs - from PC stats

Got this in an email :


So as it stands, the upcoming VIA K8T890 chipset for the Athlon64 will
support PCI Express and AGP8X videocards, and is expected to arrive
around the end of September... if VIA can keep it together. Odds are
50/50 on that. Meanwhile, the SIS 756 chipset is set to hit mass
production by mid-September. The SIS756 is probably going to be the
first chipset into retail channels to support PCI Express and AGP8X,
given that nVidia's next chipset isn't slated to be announced until
next month. Expect nVidia's Crush K8-04 solution to arrive under the
'nForce 3' nomenclature. Along with PCI Express and AGP8X support, the
CK804 will introduce SLI. If you recall, SLI is a feature which
enables the use of two nVidia PCI Express x16 videocards side-by-side
on one motherboard. Neither the SIS or VIA chipsets will support SLI,
so nVidia will have the corner on that market for the time being.
