For the SMB market

Intel has had pretty good success with its range of Q chipsets for the corporate spaces, and it now seems like the company is set to try to achieve a similar success rate in the SMB or small and medium business market with the introduction of the B43 chipset.

The B43 chipset will be paired up with the ICH10D, the same as the Q43 chipset uses, but it will have a slightly different feature set due to a different target audience. The B43 chipset will feature Intel upgrade service, just like the Q45 chipset, with Level III Manageability upgrade and it will also have support for DASH and CIRA (Client Initiated Remote Access).

Other features include DX10 graphics, dual independent display outputs with support for DVI, DisplayPort and D-sub, 1,333MHz FSB support and memory support up to DDR2-800 or DDR3-1066. It doesn't support integrated TPM, Intel anti-theft technology or Matrix Storage, so forget about built in RAID support on systems with the B43 chipset.
