POSTER: hardware news   ||   AM2 VS AM3 COMPATIBILITY	DATE:2006-07-19
we had already in detail described, why  processors Socket AM3, which relate to the so-called generation K8L, possible to be used in the existing motherbards with  AM2 Socket , point in a question of the mutual compatability of these platforms was placed early. The combined memory controller  will support borth Ddr-2 and Ddr-3 simultaneously, final selection will be determined by the motherbards possibilities. Let us recall that although both types of memory use 240- pin , the signals system used is distinguished, yes even the slots are located in such   way that installing Ddr-3 module  into the slot for Ddr-2 will be  impossible. After installing a Socket AM3 processor  into  Socket AM2 motherbard, it will not be only limited  by the Ddr-2 support , but also to the use of  HyperTransport 3.0 V bus usual HyperTransport 1.0. . Does this mean that processors Socket AM2 are possible to be installed in am3 motherbaords ??? Associates from site HKE PC introduced clarity into this question. Thus, processors  Socket AM3 budut  have 939 legs, whereas processors Socket AM2 have 940 legs. Already from this  circumstance is not allowed to install processor Socket AM2 (940 pins) into  Socket AM3 (939 pins) motherboard- Furthermore, motherboards with  Socket AM3   will be for sure   equipped  with slots DIMM  Ddr-3, and processors Socket AM2 will be able to work only with the memory   type of Ddr-2. thus, preserving old processor with the purchase of new motherboard Socket AM3  will not be succeed. Perhaps that someone of the producers is proposed hybrid motherboards with support of both types of processors, Related Products :
