Good point, it should work actually....I wonder if AMD Overdrive would work

Hi, ParticleHey guys. I know that Istanbul chips are still a little difficult to find, but no worries. They'll be upon us soon enough. In the mean time, I'm interested in finding an appropriate motherboard and such.
Basically, it must have a minimum of:
- 3x PCIe x8 (or wider) [video, RAID, RAID]
- 1x PCIe x1 (or wider) [sound]
Other than that I'm not too picky. It just needs to support two Istanbuls and 4+ DIMMs.
Anyone know of a board up to the task? The less expensive the better, naturally.
- Edit -
Forgot to mention--it needs to be able to be overclocked.
I would wait for the new chipset motherboards to show up and Super Micro is your best and most reliable option when it comes to AMD Motherboard Solutions for servers and work stations.

Anyone know if the new chipset will enable crossfire in multi-socket variant?
Particle's First Rule of Online Technical Discussion:
As a thread about any computer related subject has its length approach infinity, the likelihood and inevitability of a poorly constructed AMD vs. Intel fight also exponentially increases.
Rule 1A:
Likewise, the frequency of a car pseudoanalogy to explain a technical concept increases with thread length. This will make many people chuckle, as computer people are rarely knowledgeable about vehicular mechanics.
Rule 2:
When confronted with a post that is contrary to what a poster likes, believes, or most often wants to be correct, the poster will pick out only minor details that are largely irrelevant in an attempt to shut out the conflicting idea. The core of the post will be left alone since it isn't easy to contradict what the person is actually saying.
Rule 2A:
When a poster cannot properly refute a post they do not like (as described above), the poster will most likely invent fictitious counter-points and/or begin to attack the other's credibility in feeble ways that are dramatic but irrelevant. Do not underestimate this tactic, as in the online world this will sway many observers. Do not forget: Correctness is decided only by what is said last, the most loudly, or with greatest repetition.
Rule 3:
When it comes to computer news, 70% of Internet rumors are outright fabricated, 20% are inaccurate enough to simply be discarded, and about 10% are based in reality. Grains of salt--become familiar with them.
Remember: When debating online, everyone else is ALWAYS wrong if they do not agree with you!

You just can't win. If your product offers feature A instead of B, people will moan how A is stupid and it didn't offer B. If your product offers B instead of A, they'll likewise complain and rant about how anyone's retarded cousin could figure out A is what the market wants.

790FX is a dual-socket chipset, so with the new chipset Crossfire features should be there if the motherboard manufacturers wants it too?

The existing Nvidia MCP55 Chipset Motherboard offerings from Super Micro are able to run SLI so the answer would be yes. That is the board that I would buy if I needed to buy one now.

Remember, this is all new stuff so you will see a slow gathering of steam while they roll out the new stuff and I imagine they want to make sure the boards are good for the 6 socket chips..
As Brother Esau said above this board will handle the 6 core cpu's and is SLI capable..

Come join us,get that warm fuzzy feeling that you've done something good for mankind.
The nVidia chipsets even as old as the 3600 did SLI, but that doesn't really say much as to if AMD plans to keep Crossfire capability in RD800S/RS800/code-name-of-the-week from the desktop version it is related to.

AMD will not allow for vanity sakes SLI on Server/Workstation Motherboards and not CROSSFIRE it just seems improbable that they would permit that.

But if the chipset allows it (as the 790FX actually does...) it's all up for the manufacturer, and I can't see how AMD would have an issue with that.
Also GPGPU is the new thing, even for certain server/workstation apps so the chances of a Dual-Socket Crossfire Motherboard seems very likely to me with the next generation of chipsets.

I don't think that's what he's saying. Even if available from the chipset, a board maker may choose not to support it unless it is a minimum requirement feature for that chipset.

is socket G34 only 2 socket or will there be some 4 socket boards ?
HAVE NO FEAR!
"AMD fallen angel"
You didn't get the memo? 1 hour 'Fugger time' is equal to 12 hours of regular time.
G34 is for 4 socket, and it has lower end 2 socket boards. I cant remember the name of the other socket coming out that is for 1 socket server, and has higher end dual socket boards. The 2 new sockets overlap in the 2S area because thats where the most sales are from.
Technically, does the board manufacturer need to officially support crossfire? If the chipset allows for it, and you install the drivers for it then it *should* work. right? I thought the cards communicate through the crossfire bridges on the cards themselves...

OH man the fact these things are not $1,500 made me actually pause for half a second and ponder building a system out of two of them lol. Good thing my mizer side is stronger than my nerd side...for now...while I have a few months left of paying off the last student loan (which is my only remaining debt). haha
I'm really not all that sure. I don't want to spend a fortune on a temp board, and I'd really like to wait until these CPUs are about $400 each instead. That may only take a couple of weeks.
I haven't decided either way, however.
