NVIDIA Ion 2 to be compatible with Pinetrail, coming in early 2010


Good news for those who eternally swear against Intel's GMA graphics which is still being used in its latest Atom platform. NVIDIA has revealed that its upcoming Ion 2 chipset will be compatible with the new Pinetrail Atom platform as many had hoped, and that it will be available some time in early 2010. No word on whether it will come in the form of a mini-PCIe card or not, but it's coming. And it's going to be great. Well, great compared to Intel GMA graphics, anyway.
