ok i checked out the site above and heres a full detailed spec check from toms'
---------------------------
NORTH BRIDGE CHIP
________________
Memory bandwidth is high due to the IGP's twin bank memory controller for SDR as well as DDR SDRAM, with a 128-bit wide data path.
Memory latency is reduced due to the crossbar configuration of the two separate 64-bit wide memory controllers as well as due to the integrated DASP (Dynamic Adaptive Speculative Pre-Processor), which is something like a intelligent small third-level cache for the processor.
The integrated GeForce2MX-like graphics controller is internally connected to the chipset core with a path that has a bandwidth of 1.5 GB/s, equal to 6xAGP.
External graphics cards can take advantage of 4xAGP.
The connection to the south bridge is realized with AMD's HyperTransport interface, which offers a much higher bandwidth than the traditionally used PCI bus as well as the lately used 'hub architecture' (Intel) or 'V-Link' (VIA).
SOUTH BRIDGE CHIP
________________
High bandwidth HyperTransport interface as connection to the IGP.
Dual ATA100 IDE controller
NVIDIA APU (Audio Processing Unit) sound device with a huge feature set, including Dolby Digital encoding for AC3-output.
Full networking feature set, including FastEthernet 100/10 Mbit, HomePNA 2.0 (home phone line networking) and SoftModem
Six concurrent USB-ports with 2 USB-hubs
SteamThru, allowing high bandwidth and guaranteed real time memory access of all devices connected to the MCP, as typically required by video or audio broadcasting from disk, CD, DVD, LAN, WAN, IEEE1394 or when burning a CDROM.
-----------------------
THE SPU COMPONENT
Hardware DirectX8 audio processor (the first of its kind)
Up to 256 different stereo voices, of which 192 are 2D-voices and 64 are 3D-voices
Dolby Digital 5.1 Encoder
DSL2-acceleration (Downloadable Sample Version 2)
32 bin mixer, with 8 voice volumes mixed to each bin (to get to 256)

=======================
there u go in a nutshell costs alot though

edit
damn the pic didnt work
