From article:
On the CPU front Magny-Cours is the 45nm version for G34, and the 32nm shrink is called Interlagos, listed as 12-16 cores.

What they don't say is what motherboard or chipset these 12 and 16-core chips support.

So does anyone have any new information on compatible motherboards for these chips?
