Any news about AMD 1070/1090X/1090FX chipsets?

Anyone got any new stuff about the nest AMD chipsets? All the articles I find are 1 year old and talk about 1070/1090FX being released for Piledriver, which isn't the case anymore.

I'm looking for a new mobo, AM3+, to use my new DDR3 1866 I bought last month but don't want to buy a AMD 970 or 990X now when the 1070/1090FX "is coming soon".

Did you hear something new?

I've created this thread over the past year and nothing is coming out of AMD's chipset division which is totally focused on the APU A55 / A75 / A85 architecture.

With the rumors of Steamroller being delayed from 2013 it might be quite a while before we have PCI-E 3.0 on an AMD native platform. Unless they sneak in a chipset release next spring with the usual Piledriver cpu upgrades.
