is if they are updating the Crosshair with a newer chipset to support AM2+? and for that matter, is nvidia working on a newer AMD chipset to replace the aging 590i? i've been holding out for a Crosshair board with Socket AM2+, but i want something with a newer chipset rather than just a BIOS update to support the new chips.
i'm reluctant to go with teh AMD chipset until i've heard a lot more about its performance. as it stands the current Crosshair is a pretty awesome board, but it's sporting >1 year old tech and i've gotta wonder if the current chipset is going to bottleneck future upgrades.
