Definitely. Spider, Dragon and Leo but I remember reading somewhere than partners were anxious for boards and that they, the 900 series, would go on sale shortly before Bulldozer CPU's actually go on sale. That way you could upgrade your board, use your old CPU and drop in a 'Dozer when they are out of the gate.

wishful thinking, I seem to recall the man who works directly for AMD disputing this as a B.S Rumor and definitely not going to transpire.

My money is J-F-AMD being right. Anyway I could care less do not overclock anymore and my next personal system build is Server Dual CPU G34 socket. just don't have the time or desire or willingness to play the constant outlay of money game for this addiction and thats all it is ....nothing but a addiction and just as powerful as being hooked on drugs full time....been there done that ...its one and the same just a different medium used for the addiction.
