What is the difference between these chipsets?

VIA K8T800 Pro + VT8237

and

nForce 3

Does one make the motherboard faster? (AMD mbs)

I think that the VIA one is just a motherboard chipset and the NForce is a video card chipset. Correct me if I am wrong.

No, I'm pretty sure they are both motherboard chipsets.

They are both motherboard chipsets.
nforce 3 is a chipset made by nvidia which also makes graphics cards.

As for which ones faster i would have to say its the nforce 3 chipset but im not really sure on this.

 

[OIDanTheManIO]

OK, sorry for the confusion on my part

no one has answered the question of which one is better. or does it matter?

 

[OIDanTheManIO]

Personally, I like Via better just because the only chipsets I've ever used have been Via chipsets.
