New AMD 7 Series chipsets for desktop PCs

�

The next one composing of the new platform of spider of AMD is the line of AMD the chipsets of 7 series which currently includes the version of the most powerful AMD 790FX, a version for the GCV of mass - AMD 790X, as well as version AMD 770 of value-sector.

All the three chipsets are made after the 65 standards of transformer technology of nanometer with ONESELF and, according to the representatives of AMD, twice offer also less power against the former generation of the chipsets of AMD. The TDP for high-end tiddlywinks 790FX is declared on level 10 W.

For a visual experiment more, we found adapted it to collect the principal characteristics of the three chipsets in a table - in this way than it is easier to estimate the possibilities and the differences of each one.

Especially, we note the innovations and the principal technologies applied in AMD 7 series:

�

• HyperTransport 3.0 - execution almost doubled compared to HT1 while given of exchange enters the central processing unit of treatment and the graphs.
• Automatic Xpress - a technology for the agreement of high-quality of execution of the PC, which is allowed automatically by employing components of AMD/ATI and chooses optimum arrangements of system. It also optimizes the graphic execution using of the processors of AMD with HT1, reads special the overclocking arrangements of the modules of DIMM DDR2 for a better agreement of memory.
• Generation 2.0 of PCI Express - offers the possibility to use the bus of PCI Express of new generation to increase the execution, including that of the graphic subsystem.
• Technology of GPU-Plex - an extensible technology for the flexible execution granting in the systems with several video charts equipped 2 with the GPUs core
• Blocks of quadruple PCIE - interaction improved of the central processing unit of treatment and the GPU to reduce the latency of memory and to optimize the bandwidth of bus of PCI-E.
• Technology of ATI CrossFireX - profit in the execution of the graphic subsystem reached by the installation of four video charts in a system.
• Upward compatibility - flexibility in compatible platforms of building based pieces on AMD Athlon and AMD Phenom
• Overdrive of AMD - control of prolonged arrangements of the chipsets of AMD 7-Series of Microsoft Windows.
• AMD RAIDXpert - configuration remotely simple of the subsystem of RAID

Tiddlywinks AMD 790FX of flagship are aimed establishing the systems at end high of execution based on mother charts for casing AM2+ of AMD. The tiddlywinks support 42 lines of bus of PCI Express which can be configured in any combination. Undoubtedly, the majority of the mother charts based on the tiddlywinks 790FX will offer the support of the configuration of interference current with to four video charts; this is why 32 buses of PCI Express will be cabled on slits of PCI Express x16 for the graph, with ten additional buses left for the other peripherals.

The characteristics of the tiddlywinks of mass AMD 790X are rather similar to the possibilities of the of top-end 790FX, except that there is little bus of PCI Express. Consequently, unlike the 790FX which supports three or four video charts, the mother charts based on 790X will envisage the operation of interference current in only traditional mode with two video charts.

The tiddlywinks of value-sector AMD 770, in its turn, will offer the support of the only video chart.

It should also note that all new the chipsets will be now equipped with the bridge of well-known south ATI SB600, however in the next year we expect a restoration in the form of SB700.

With that, we could finish with the overall picture of AMD 'chipsets of S the new ones, but for conclusion I 'd like to mention two or three points. First of all, I 'd like to show you a pair of screenshots which exemplifient the principles of the technology overdrive of AMD. Clearly, all what would be adapted for an article devoted to the practical tests, but of me think that you gained the 'spirit of T that.

To finish, the final cord: a screenshot with a list of mother charts for casing AM2+ which are awaited to arrive in detail in the future nearest.

Instead of the final words which can there 't being after the dry theoretical reasoning without tests of a system of phase, let me indicate an interesting fact. The thing is, AMD in its presentations devoted to the advertisement of the platform of spider of AMD, accentuates its firm intention to begin the delivery of all the components, including the processors lately announced, before the New Year's Day day before. I.e., the company for drawing the best from the sales of Christmas.

According to the preliminary data, these plans are realistic enough for the graphs of family of 3800 of Radeon HD. According to other indirect data already covered in our reports/ratios, the quantity of processors of Phenom of AMD was transported before the New Year's Day day before can rise to the hundreds of thousands. Indeed, if very which goes without jolt as envisaged and unless the suppliers of the mother chart let to us swallow (they keep their promises normally, if there is enough quantity of chipsets), and if acceptable results of exposure of tests - we can count that the fanciers of product of AMD/ATI will have a true season of festival awaited for a long time. At all events, today me 'of D rather limits myself with this neutral observation - leave 'makes an attempt S the results of the first examines.
