From anandtech: nForce 590 SLI Intel Edition: NVIDIA prepares an Intel 975X Killer


"........NVIDIA and its partners are in the process of readying nForce 590 SLI and nForce 570 SLI Intel based motherboards for the upcoming Core 2 Duo product launch. Several of the existing nForce4 Intel SLI XE and Ultra motherboards will also be upgraded for Core 2 Duo compatibility resulting in a product lineup that will stretch from the mainstream market where the Intel 945/965 chipsets compete to the very upper end market where Intel positions the 975X product. Based upon our very preliminary testing, it appears that NVIDIA is positioning itself well for both the enthusiast and general user markets once Intel releases the Core 2 Duo CPUs along with substantial price reductions on the current NetBurst processors.

ooooooooh sounds good especially if they can get around Intel chipset's bootstrap max fsb limitations easily!

I'd love to see a DFI SLI_DR Core 2 Duo board.

lets hope they make a good board
Intel's boards for intel cpu's have always been superior

If Intel boards don't support SLI then they're already at a loss.
