Nvidia is flying high these days and I am sure that they are loving the chipset shortage over at Intel. It seems that people are buying motherboards without graphics and adding in an Nvidia or ATI card. Nvidia’s Paul Sun expects the company to sell ONE MILLION more cards a month during the chipset shortage! With numbers like that I am bettig that Nvidia hopes the current shortage lasts until 2006.

The rising demand is expected to contribute an additional one million graphics card shipments to the industry every month in the second half of this year, Sun said.
