If you though Granite Bay was exciting, you'll love to know that the i875P chipset along with ICH5/R is to die for. Hot Hardware's review: [H]ard|OCP also has a good writeup on the i875P chipset. The SATA RAID function and the separate bus for Gigabit ethernet have me just giddy. Even if the P4 doesn't tickle your fancy, the i875P should have you drooling. If not, I suggest getting your pulse checked.
