As implied by this naming schema, these four products are very close in terms of features, capabilities, and performance. Those four products are the G45 Express, G43 Express, P45 Express, and the P43 Express. While all of these new chipset products which are being launched today are based on the same core architecture, Intel has segmented this one architecture into four individual products. The products which are launching today will make up the lion’s share of Intel’s chipset lineup until their next generation high-end X58 chipset launches with the Core 2’s successor, codenamed Nehalem. The names and specifications of these products have been rumored and reported on for the past few months, although today everything is set in stone and products are beginning to hit the market. Today at Computex, Intel has officially launched their updated lineup of x45-series chipsets, which will likely be the last major mainstream chipset launch from Intel on the Core 2 platform as we know it today.
