SiS has been a remarkably good company for a long, long time. We grew up on their astounding work... so good, you almost never notice that it is SiS.
Too bad they get repaid in this way.
I would trust anything they do in this new venture.

 

It's a shame that we will have less choices when it comes to chipsets but to be honest, I've never taken a look at a SiS or Via chipset in years (not even nVidia for that matter). Uli was quite nice at one point but got bought off by nVidia & they disappeared for good.

Even before the "fusion" of CPU & chipset, people are already buying Intel chipsets for Intel CPUs & the same happens on the AMD side. :-/

 

I wasn't aware they were still in business, glad to here they are.

 

ahh we use to build some very cheap computers with sis. Great for the bottom line. Would I use them in my own PC nooo but for someone wanting super cheap I would choose sis over some no name brand.
