I'm kind of sad they didn't use a Chrome 400 DX10 IGP, though. They've been making low-power GPUs for ages and now that they could use one to sink the competition, they won't. Adding a discrete GPU is also not an option because the bridge has no PCI-E interface, unlike the older VX800.
So gaming is more limited with this bridge that it is with the Atom platform.
This is probably why nVidia got "angry" with VIA. With this chipset in VIA's hands, nVidia only has gaming as an advantage for Ion.
