I went with the 680i in my new box which CW built for me, he seemed very
impressed with it as well. Online reviews are very encouraging.

Still a bit early to tell on the N680 and RD600, but initial indications
for
the 680 look positive.
NVidia's chipsets have reached a point where they are pretty solid. I'd
still avoid anything Via...SiS is hit-and-miss, and I have no experience
with ATI.
The big problem with Intel's offerings is that only the 965 is really
designed for C2D, but the 965 is a mid-level (non-enthusiast) chipset.
It's
solid, but lacks some features.
