Don't let NVIDIA's recent announcement that they'll be steering clear of Intel DMI CPUs get you down, man. According to the fine folks at Fudzilla, the company will indeed unveil its Ion 2 chipset before the year's end. The second-generation platform is said to feature much faster graphics, over twice the shaders, a smaller die, and support for the VIA Nano as well as the usual compliment of Pentium 4-compatible CPUs. No word yet from the company itself, but you'll know as soon as we do. Promise.

Maybe, if Hulu makes their flash DXVA or CUDA accessible. I had thought you have to basically make your video files in some variant of mpeg 4 to see any benefits hard ware accel on the new 8, 9, or 2xxGTX series or ATI HD series cards. Or have they fixed this and i was not aware because i went out and bought an i7?
