    I'd think at that point, you'd just go DB w/ an AM3+ purchase and leave it at that.
    Do we have any idea what sorts of features will be featured on a "990FX" chipset? It might actually be worth it if there's something good included... like the ability to put in a few nvidia cards in SLI, a la Intel...

    Otherwise, you're exactly right.
