AMD plans to launch a new entry-level IGP chipset, the 760G based on RS780 architecture, in January 2009.

The chipset will support DirectX 10 and Shader Model 4.0, but will not support Unified Video Decoder (UVD) and Hybrid CrossFireX technologies nor HDMI and Display Port connections, according to sources at motherboard makers.

The 760G will replace the 740G chipset and will be accompanied by a new SB710 southbridge.

The company will also launch upgraded 790FX and 790GX IGP chipsets that include AM3-computability and will be paired with the SB750 southbridge. An RS880 IGP chipset will be launched in May or June next year paired with the SB710, and in July or August, AMD will launch an 770 chipset also paired with the SB710 which adds support for AM3-based processors.

In September, AMD plans to launch an RD890 and SB800 pair
