AMD Zambezi news, info, fans !

[Formula350]

So do we know if the Zambezi on 900-series boards will be running with NB@2600MHz? I was getting excited about the 6.4MT/s (3200MHz) of 'Dozer, till I saw the new boards are only HT3.0 still Think they'll OC fine to 3200?

My understanding is that this is chip dependent so as soon that as you pop in the BD it will be HT3.1 (3200MHz). In other words the boards should support both HT3.0 & HT3.1.

I dunno... I think with how big of deal was made that 890FX could do 2600Mhz (despite the PhII not defaulting to that), one would think the same would be again done with the 990FX. The only things I've seen are boards silkscreened with HT3.0, or like this ASRock Extreme4 (which as I found out over a month ago is just the 890FX Deluxe5) which just says FSB2.6GHz and HT3.0 :\ The Sabertooth nor the CVF mention HT version or the CPU-NB speed. MSI's 990FX-GD80 I didn't see mention it, but the GD65 says 3.0. I'm not going to check all the gigabyte models, but the two I did look at were absent of all mentioning, like ASUS
