I think you will find that the complexity of the current offerings in
the x86 family can only be tamed by lots of glue silicon. Chipsets have
been used since 286 days. I have a few 286 motherboards with discrete
TTL glue and they aren't pretty.

If you are talking about other (more elegant) processor architectures,
the requirements may be less demanding for glue logic.
