Things have been rather quiet over at AMD when it comes to motherboard chipsets and platform changes as they haven't needed to update anything since no new processors or technologies have really come out in the past year or two. It is hard to imagine that the AMD 790FX and 790GX chipsets have been out for nearly two years now, but they have proven to be solid platforms for AMD users and didn't really need a change. That was the case up until today.
