AM2 is the new form factor that supports DDR2. From what I've read though, 939 is still faster on the same speed CPU. |

is there a list of compatibility? i checked the DFI website but didn;t see a compatibility list. I saw the DRR 40 was compatible but i didn;t see if certain manufactuers would have issues.
I am leanign toward that DFI board with the 4800 x2 CPU for 280... or a 3800 for 175. The only real diferencde i could se was that the 4800 is an x2 and it has 2x1mb L2 cache on it. Granted its at 2.4ghz while the other is at 2.0... But is that woth the extra 100 as well???
3800 : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819103562
4800 : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819103544 _________________
