ALi’s M1687 has support for AGP up to 8X, which provides system designers ample room to interface with various levels of graphics requirements. Also, by adapting the industry most innovations - HyperTransport technology link bus between ALi’s M1687 and M1563, ALi’s solution is the best one to complement the architecture of AMD’s new processor platform. ALi’s M1563 comes highly integrated with AC-Link Host Controller, Dual Channel ATA-133, 6 ports USB 2.0 Host controller, MAC controller for 1/10/100 fast Ethernet, memory stick and SD interface, and HyperTransport technology link interface.
this is for the Opteron and the 8th gen athlon processors. I wonder which motherboard manufacture will jump on the ali chipset?Amdmb (http://www.amdmb.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=130680) has a little article on the peice.
