In an effort to reduce the ever increasing size and heat output of it's chipsets, Nvidia has announced it is moving away from a 80nm process, used in the 780i, to the same 65nm process they are also using in the G9x graphics chips.
This is a very welcomed move by Nvidia, whose chipsets have beaten all previous records of power consumption and heat output, to the point where they now have to use big active coolers. The chips will obviously also get smaller, but these two favorable consequences will go down the drain if the complexity increases too much.
The first chipsets to be graced with the move will be the new 700a series for AMD processors.
