nForce3-250: Which Boards Have On-Chip LAN?

Asmoday · Aug 6, 2004, 01:45 PM

"As we talked about in the launch review of the nForce3-250 chipset, the high-end versions of the nF3-250 feature nVidia on-chip LAN and nVidia Firewall built into the chip. Since the original chipset launch, it has been clear that readers were very confused about what the nVidia on-chip LAN actually was and which boards had the on-chip LAN.

We have been working with nVidia to try to provide some answers to your questions and clear up the confusion. This should make your buying decision a little easier when shopping for nForce3-250 motherboards."

He has made a mistake on the Gigabyte K8NSNXP(939) board. It does have the nVidia LAN and the firewall but it is NOT gigabite LAN! For that you'd have to use the onboard Marvel LAN.
Just so you all know
