Intel Chipsets are Sold Out

Oh oh, spaghettios. Business is so good that the Intel CFO said on their conference they are out of chipsets. That is good news for Nvidia as they make chipsets too.

The chip giant, which earlier this year said it was reprioritizing its chip-set manufacturing in an effort to keep up with demand, doesn't expect to catch a breather until early 2006, said Andy Bryant, Intel Corp.'s CFO, on Thursday. "We're sold out on chip sets," Bryant said during a conference call to discuss Intel's third-quarter financial update. "I think chip sets [will] remain tight into the fourth quarter."
