nVidia chipsets are great but I believe the latest Intel chipsets are more up to date than nVidias. For example, the one you posted supports up to "800MHz DDR2" ram, the one I posted supports "1333MHz DDR3" and maybe even higher later on. It's also rumored on tech forums that the new bearlake P35 chipset will most likely support Intels new CPU coming out later this year or early next year.

But the Intel chipsets don't support SLI, so if you run games and want two nVidia cards then you need a nVidia chipset not Intel. Intel does support multiple ATI/AMD cards(crossfire) if you went with that brand video card instead of nVidia.
