These two should be expected that production in the first quarter of 2010, which means that we can see that the new systems to mix Intel's upcoming LGA 1156-compatible processors with NVIDIA chipsets said.

Unfortunately, technical details about the two products are quite rare today, but it seems that the MCP89 will be designed for the Intel LGA 775 processors, while the MCP99 support Intel's next generation desktop processors. The former is designed with a DirectX 10-supporting graphics core and supports Intel processors with an FSB of 1333MHz and DDR3-1333 memory. The latter, on the other hand, a number of questions about production, it is designed for Intel's 45nm and 32nm processors that are compatible with the upcoming LGA 1156 socket. It is still unclear when this product becomes available to users, but there is a strong chance Intel will have something to say about it.
