Just curious, do you know of any system where that recommendation was not followed? On all motherboards where I have seen a AMD-8131 or a AMD-8132, they were alone on their hypertransport link, and other "northbridges" (more precisely hypertransport to pci-express or pci-whatever, often nvidia) with a "MMCONFIG BAR" where on one of the other available hypertransport links in the system.
