We talked earlier about how March would see the release of NVIDIA’s next generation GPUs in the form of the GeForce GTX470 and GTX480. NVIDIA showed off the cards at CeBIT this week, and let out a few more choice details.

AMD has seen fit to bring out their latest generation of chipset with new integrated graphics, the 890GX. A first model in the 800-series, the 890GX brings a number of improvements to the AMD stable: native SATA3.0, a new SB850 southbridge (finally!), more powerful graphics, USB3.0, dual- and hybrid-GPU options and perhaps most interesting of all, compatibility with the six-core Phenom II X6 processor.
