New chipsets for Bulldozer in approach at AMD

A leak from AMD indicates the arrival of new chipsets for socket AM3 processors a + operator, it is called the Bulldozer course.

AMD Bulldozer operator architecture, the famous FX-Series tested here, are installed on the socket AM3 +. A platform that could see its life lie with the emergence of new chipsets in 2012, 1070 and 1090FX AMD. In any case, the assertions of the leaker Turkish DonanimHaber that publishes excerpts from documents in-house presentations at AMD. We see these new chipsets appear, destined to replace the 900 series that come with the latest desktop processors from depth.

No progress is expected towards the PCIe they should be satisfied with the standard 2.0, but the higher end of these chipsets, the AMD 1090FX, should provide the same bandwidth as that proposed by the Ivy Bridge platform of Intel. All new products are expected from the side of Southbridge, the SB1060, which will manage eight ports SATA 6 Gb / s and USB 3.0 natively (not for the AMD 1070).

No revolution in sight so, and certainly not enough to change the motherboard for its FX Series CPU, but changes that could be attractive to buyers who were preparing to renew their full machine-based AMD. It is not known exactly when the motherboard manufacturers begin to incorporate these chipsets.
