NVIDIA blåser liv i nForce2

Jeg er ikke helt sikker, men stemmer det at nForce2 400Gb også mangler SoundStorm-lyd slik som nForce3 250Gb gjør?

Audio

One of the most disappointing thing about the nForce 2 Ultra 400Gb is NVIDIA’s abandonment of the SoundStorm APU (Audio Processing Unit) that helped to make the nForce2 so popular amongst audiophiles and gamers alike. With AC-3 Dolby digital encoding and SPDIF, SoundStorm really set the standards high for an APU. While most manufacturers use the same AC97 sound, the SoundStorm APU added more flexibility and Dolby digital encoding. The sound output is still determined by the codec, but the flexibility and Dolby encoding with SPDIF interface will surely be missed by me in future NVIDIA products. As it stands right now, there are no plans for any NVIDIA based boards (I.E NF3 250 GB) that will be offering the SoundStorm APU. Maybe someday NVIDIA will reintroduce an APU similar to SoundStorm and bring back the features of the SoundStorm APU to the people. Sadly our reference board had audio issues, but this board is a early reference design and retail boards will hopefully be problem free.
