From RS780 it differ only with the absence of UVD displayPort support. AMD RS780C - > will be announced in the first quarter 2008.This last will also support the hyperTransport 3.0 and PCI express 2.0. Chipset RS780 will support interfaces DVI, HDMI and DisplayPort. The latter will ensure hadrware decoding h.264/AVC and VC-1. The built-in graphic core will get support to directX 10 and the advanced video coder UVD. AMD RS780 - > will be announced in the first quarter 2008.Let us transfer the fundamental characteristics of integrated chipsets AMD for socket AM2+ platform. To the first quarter 2008 AMD plan to release the new generation integrated chipsets. For these chipsets AMD developed a new utility, which allow to overclock from Windows, change memory tuning, to check system stability and to do some benchmark. Those four chipset uses the existing south bridge AMD SB600, newer SB700 will be released only in the fourth quarter 2007. Motherboard on the base of all four chipsets can use the maximally standardized design, which simplify their development and lower prime cost. The cost of motherboard will be packed in range $50-70. Chipsets RX740 support only HyperTransport 1.0, but this does not limit its compatibility with processors socket AM2+. AMD RX740 - > support one slot PCI express x16, which corresponds to the specifications PCI express 1.x.The cost of motherboard on base of RX780 will be packed in range $50-70. Chipset RX780 support hyperTransport 3.0. AMD RX780 - > support one slot PCI express x16, which corresponds to the specifications PCI express 2.0.The cost of motherboard on the base of RD780 will be packed in range $70-100. Chipset RD780 support hyperTransport 3.0 and PCI express 2.0. AMD RD780 - > support two slots PCI express x16, which work according to : PCI express x8 + PCI express x8.The cost of motherboard (on base of RD790) will start from $150. Chipset RD790 can be used also in dual-processor systems class quad FX with support to processors socket F+. Chipset RD790 support hyperTransport 3.0 and PCI express 2.0. Still six lines PCI express can be used for expansion card controllers. AMD RD790 - > high end chipset, it is capable to support up to four slots PCI express x16 (four PCI express x8 , one PCI express x16 + two PCI express x8 or PCI express x16 + PCI express x16).Let us note the information about future AMD chipsets. According to some data, passage to system bus HyperTransport 3.0 will bring noticeable boost only in multiprocessor systems therefore the owners of present motherboards socket AM2 can completely and comfortably work with processors socket AM2+. Actually, the current chipsets (Socket AM2) can work with these processors but in this case the system bus hyperTransport 1.0 will be used . Let us recall that the special features of processors generation k10 is new the design (Socket AM2+), and also the support Of hyperTransport 3.0. with reference to official AMD road map , yesterday AMD prepares to release in the third quarter 2007 the entire chipsets family intended for work with processors generation K10. In the end of April we reported about AMD plans to show the systems on base of chipset RD790 during exhibition computex 2007. POSTER: computer news || AMD PREPARE CHIPSET FOR K10 PROCESSOR
