Another preview of this very interesting product available at TweakTown. Many benchmarks-synthetic and real-apps.

So it has multiple versions for different markets. Also 2x16PCI-E version will be available. Very nice - looks like nVidia gonna have strong competitor to it`s curent nF4 and coming C51. I hope that Uli won`t make us wait too long as it usualy does.
Very interesting product.
Looks like it offers the best things that I look for: value, and especially performance. It was keeping up with the other brand name chipsets pretty well. Now if it offers good overclockability, we will see one hell of a product.
Agreed on the interest -- might provide a decent AGP bridge product for those of us with significant AGP investment who can't go PCI-E just yet...

Why doesn't there seem to be much anticipation for this? Just about every reviewer has seen the chipset capable of 400mhz on the chipset! We all love NF4, and Xpress is anticipated, but I haven't heard much of the ULI 1695 even though it looks to be solid and a great clocker.
Uli is notorious for their`s paper launches
