We told you so/Rumor: Nvidia chipset coming to the new MacBook


So, Mac Soda has the hot scoop that the new MacBooks, the ones that are already shipping, will be ditching the Intel graphics chipsets for the Nvidia MCP7A-U graphics chipset. Sure it’s embedded and all, but it supports HDMI. If you recall, we told you about this earlier this month. All of this propagates the rumor of a refresh coming next month.

“MCP7A-U is the top class chipset in the MCP7A family. Though it could be named as GeForce 9XXX, it will be come the first mainstream uATX mobo with DDR3-1333 support. Sources inform us the MCP7A-U will be the “fastest mGPU”, but who knows.”
