I wish they stuck with ONE socket for YEARS like Intel does with the LGA775. I have having up grade MBs every time I want a new CPU. Flash the BIOS, and call it good for a new CPU. :-(

You can use a AM2+ CPU in an AM2 socket, you just don't get HT3.0, PCI-E 2.0 and Split-Power Planes.

Yeah, I know that. I was referring to socket 754 and 939. I hope they keep the same grid layout for some time to come.
