apparently.... AMD's upcoming Socket AM2 (due to be launched on June 6th).... isn't entirely a new socket. yes.... AMD is really farking with our heads on this one. apparently it will be a 940-pin CPU, but will have a slightly altered pin configuration than today's 940-pin CPU's have. so.... in other words..... even if your motherboard has support for 940-pin CPU's.... you'll STILL need a new mobo to support AM2. isn't that a kick in the groin?
