SR56xx Chipsets:sr5690,sr5670,sr5650 and sp5100.

[SocketMan]

WIP
These new chipsets should be the "backbone" of all AMD based systems for the next ~2 years.
This includes the upcoming Opteron 6000 series (Magny Cores socket g34,2P-4P) and most likely the Opteron 4000 series( socket c32 1P-2P).




Product Overview
Three different configurations to meet your needs, the SR5690, SR5670 and the SR5650.
All three versions offer:
HyperTransportTM 3.0 technology, PCIe Generation 2, SATA 2.5 and USB 2.0. Additionally all three
offer enterprise features such as HT error handling, PCIe AER, Data Poisoning Passthrough, PCIe end-to-end CRC
and AMD-Vi (IOMMU 1.2).

Scalability:
All three combinations of Embedded Enterprise Chipsets (SR5690/SP5100, SR5670/SP5100, SR5650/SP5100) are
compatible with all AMD embedded processors including high performance AMD Opteron™ processors, socketed
AM2 low power single and dual-core AMD Athlon™ processors and very low power AMD Athlon, AMD Sempron™and AMD Turion™ ASB1 (BGA) processors.
In addition two I/O bridges can be used in the same system in any
combination (SR5690/SR5690, SR5690/SR5670, etc).






Processor Support:
Embedded AMD OpteronTM Processors
Embedded AMD AthlonTM Single and Dual-Core Processors from 8W to 35W
Both AM2 and ASB1 packages
Embedded AMD TurionTM Processors
Embedded AMD SempronTM Processors

Speculation:
The desktop version will most likely be know as RD890 and
if History repeats itlesf - we'll see something like:
890fx (sr5690) 890x (sr5670) and 870 (sr5650),similar
to the 7 series (790fx,790x,770)

Motherboards utilizing the new SR56xx chip sets available
today on the market:

Desktop/1p Server:

Tyan S8005
Chipset AMD SR5670 + SP5100
HT3,DDR3.

3 "Flavours" are available with onboard SAS option being the major difference.

http://www.tyan.com/product_board_detail.aspx?pid=651

Chipset: AMD SR5690 + SP5100
PCI-E (1) PCI-E Gen.2 x8 slot (w/ x4 link) / (1) PCI-E Gen.2 x8 slot / (1) PCI-E Gen.2 x16 slot (w/ x16 or x8 link) / (1) PCI-E Gen.2 x8 slot (w/ x0 or x8 link)
Recommended TYAN Riser Card M2083-RS, PCI-E x16 1U riser card (left) / M2091, PCI-E x16 1U riser card (left)
PCI (2) PCI 32-bit slots

Again 3 "flavours" are available with 8 SAS being the difference.

Now this is the board that caught my attention right away:
H8DA6+-F

http://www.supermicro.com/Aplus/moth...0/H8DA6+-F.cfm
Dual AMD SR5690 + SP5100 Chipset

It allows 4 double-wide (16x) PCIe 2.0 GPUs.
(See Attached Pic5)
Ask Particle about details
I do believe that Crossfire is supported.
