I know that BD means Bulldozer and they aren't out yet but what does SB mean?

So are MSI board not good then? I was thinking of getting the MSI 990FXA-GD65.
Well that or a Asus M5A99X EVO.

But are you guys saying that all 990 chipsets are bad?

What about the 970 chipsets?

There isn't much difference, AMD haven't given official BD support on AM3, some vendors are allowing it on higher end boards, such as the Crosshair IV.

it's not just the high end boards, the m4a89gtd boards have an am3+ bios as well, for example.
