nForce 680i LT Launched

The mid-range 680i LT sits between the 680i and the 650 chipsets. Motherboard manufactorer XFX have already announced a model containig the new chipset

From the looks of the reviews appearing on the net, the LT is not a bad compromise. Overclocking is good, pricing is reasonable but it lacks some features (including that third PCI-Express full-length slot) and has sub-par cooling. Not exactly a home run for the Nvidians, but better than letting Intel dominate a sector of the market, we suspect.
