Published: | Posted By:

"IA Technologies and Silicon Integrated Systems (SiS) are poised to support the new 400MHz FSB (front-side bus) Barton-core processors from Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) with their respective KT600 and SiS748 chipsets."

"With the new offerings, both companies are expected to be more competitive in the high-end sector against Nvidia, whose nForce2 chipset has been gaining popularity due to its strong price/performance ratio. According to motherboard sources, monthly shipments of nForce2 chipsets are likely to have exceeded 500,000 units."
There is no doubt that the current nFoce2 motherboards can handle 400Mhz FSB, they will just need a BIOS update to accept the new processor configurations.
