AMD 9 Series Chipset Roadmap: 880G "Reloaded"

[god_43]

AMD recently fell in love with the road map: first bulldozers and desktop CPU architecture APU, then the Socket AM3 platform processors, and now the next generation 9 series chipset, and it and two months ago to see with a little different.

AMD 9系列芯片组将主要搭配推土机架构处理器“赞比西河”(Zambezi)，组成新平台“天蝎座”(Scor pius)，其中处理器插座改为新的Socket AM3+，但可继续使用目前的Socket AM3处理器。 AMD 9 series chipsets will be mainly based processor with a bulldozer, "Zambezi" (Zambezi), to form a new platform "Scorpio" (Scorpius), which changed to a new processor socket Socket AM3 +, but can continue to use the current Socket AM3 processor.

am3+ in Q1.

I smell some Dozer...

[SubZero.it]

Finally some news about this, great find

[slaveondope]

Can't wait, no literally
Need a new motherboard for the 1090t and then will drop in a 8 core BullDozer beast into it.
Here's to seeing some board's soon

[zalbard]

Q1. Wish I could grab it before the New Year!

[haylui]

I believe since AMD is re-using all the chipsets; this requires very little work for validation and redesign work for a new socket, many motherboard makers have their working version of AM3+ inside their lab already.

me too

am3+ in Q1.

And the 900-series chipsets in Q2.

full of garbage and ideas and not confirmed.... the 500mhz is from the server parts where it has not been confirmed yet if it will be the same or even more on desktop parts.

on the chipset parts, it's a small refresh didn't expect anything else main new/enhanced features will be in the SB 900 chipsets

[informal]

Same old Fud,stealing info from others and not crediting them(dresdenboy's blog) and providing it like he found it himself.Then mix in some wild speculation(about turbo clocks and transistor count for 8 core BD) and you get a genuine fud piece of "news".

[Duniek]

IGP 5xxx(5290?) with 3-eyefinity operate is my dream

[Mats]

Yeah, he thinks that 4 x 213 mm^2 makes a complete Zambezi die, but that's actually without the L3, right?

[Manicdan]

Yeah, he thinks that 4 x 213 mm^2 makes a complete Zambezi die, but that's actually without the L3, right?

that might be called an athlon if it follows the same thing as phenom minus L3

[Mats]

You still need MC, HT and NB, I forgot that.

Hehe +1

[Nintendork]

I expect 80SP 40nm IGP, no less than that.

[Mats]

Expect less, the roadmap clearly shows that this is the same as 880G, and even if it was fake I wouldn't expect AMD's possibly last NB to make a huge jump in IGP performance.
Given the market it's made for, you either want just a video output, or a graphics card. For the same reason, Socket 1366 doesn't have an IGP option at all.

[haylui]

@Mats, you finally separate your avatar so that people really "sees".

[Mats]

Yup, I had too may questions about it. People saw something in it that wasn't there.

[KiSUAN]

I still see it... when i crosseye

[Darakian]

It's been seen. It cannont be unseen :p

For the love of all things holy! I have been waiting what almost 3 years for this crap to materialize so I can build my dual csocket server system and yet its still vaporware....wtf already?

The dual socket boards and chipsets are already for sale and has been for a long time now.

there is still an integrated chipset, "980G", comes with DX10.1 graphics core level, frequency 560MHz, supports UVD 2.0 decoding engine , HDMI output and dual displays, PCI-E 2.0 bus. From the specification point of view, it is now almost no difference between the 880G is 21mm FCBGA package and 18W thermal design power, but with the South Bridge will turn into the next generation of SB920, and support new AM3 + processor. In fact, the 880G and 785G previous itself has already been no different, only the frequency of slight increase only. In other words, the integration across the three generations of the core is ready.

980G == 880G = 785G? The specs are the same
Yet another rename.

880G motherboards with the SB710 South Bridge can also be used to support new AM3 + processor.

From the link.

Is there still hope for 880G owners like me?
Come on, just make them pin compatible. I'll add the agesa and cpucodes myself
