Z68 chipset on newegg

Im curious if this is build on the instruction set of the Z80. im thinking and don't care but wondering.
then again maybe way off track. was wondering though.
memories with assembly only and debugger. thats how it was done. old school maybe.

so it looks like the z68 chipset comes in a few different flavors, from x8 x8 pci e, to onboard video, to full x16 x16 pcie. the z68 also supports the intel smart response ssd cache feature, which helps both ssd and hhd drives perform much faster. here are 3 models with the 1st supporting x8x8, then x16 x16, then integrated video. also gigabyte has branched out and impemented something similar to the new uefi bios replacement in their z68 chipsets. i also read somewhere that gigabyte will soon be ending their production of p67 boards by the end of 2011, for a quick transition to the new chipset, but will keep the h67 boards well into 2012.

all onboard video

the onboard video ones are intresting, because it may give the ability to use the integrated gpu of the say i7 2600k, and still be able to overclock the integrated gpu like on the h67 boards, while also allowing us to adjust the multiplyer for a higher cpu core clock like on the p67 boards?
