Hi,

I noticed the wiki supported chipsets page has listed under the southbrigde section "AMD RS690" and "AMD RS780/RS785?". But RS690 and RS780 are northbridges, not southbridges, and there is no RS785.

Sorted by codename, the chipsets I can find are*
Codename        Product Name            Documentation?
RS690           AMD 690G chipset        x[2]
RS690C          AMD 690V chipset        x[2]
RS690E          AMD M690E chipset       x[2]
RS690M          AMD M690 chipset        x[2]
RS690MC         AMD M690V chipset       x[2]
RS690T          AMD M690T chipset       x[2]
RS740           AMD 740G chipset        
RX740           AMD 740 chipset         
RD780           AMD 790X chipset        
RS780           AMD 780G chipset        x[1]
RS780C          AMD 780V chipset        x[1]
RS780D          AMD 790GX chipset       x[1]
RS780E          AMD 780E chipset        x[1]
RS780L          AMD 760G chipset        
RS780M          AMD M780G chipset       x[1]
RS780MC         AMD M780V chipset       x[1]
RX780           AMD 770 chipset         
RX781           AMD M770 chipset        x[1]
RD790           AMD 790FX chipset       
RS880           AMD 785G chipset        

* Cobbled together from wikipedia and amd documentation

As far as I can tell (though I haven't looked heavily), AMD northbridges are the only ones to use separate code/product names. Since the product names are likely more well-known, I suggest the following:
Move "RS690" to northbridges, and rename it to "690G/V, M690/E/V/T"
Move "RS780/RS785?" to northbridges, and rename it to "780E/G/V, 790GX, M770, M780G/V"

Now, that assumes that support for these actually exists. I only see one motherboard on the supported motherboards page that uses a 690G, and none that uses a 700-series chipset. Does anyone know the actual status?

And for all the 700-series without documentation, should they be in the list for clarity, as either WIP or NO with a footnote saying they're similar but documentation hasn't been released?
