Found some info regarding AM2+ & AM3 in Wikipedia, might be useful ...
AM2+
AM3
Seems AM2, AM2+ & AM3 share a similarity; the 940-contact socket.
[wtf] AM3/DDR3/45nm in 2008?

QUOTE(afosz @ May 5 2007, 09:00 PM) 940 and AM2 is different, although AM2 sometimes referred as 940. 940 is for most Opterons. Just wondering, how is it AM2 proc will fit into AM3 board, but AM3 proc will NOT fit into AM2 board?    I mean, they are pin-to-pin compatible, since AM2+ fits AM2, AM3 fits AM2+ & vice versa.I think it has something to do with HyperTransport. Well, that's of what I heard of.
