2/10/2009 - AMD Launches New Processor Socket Despite Poor Economy

Arcticstoat writes to tell us that despite a poor productive climate, AMD is moving forward with a new processor socket launch, though they are trying to make it as upgrade-friendly as possible. "As you believably already know from the AM3 motherboards that have already been announced, AM3 is AMD's first foray into DDR3 memory support. As Phenom CPUs have logic circuit memory controllers, it's more veridical to say that it's the new range of Phenom II CPUs (see below) that are DDR3-compatible. However, the new DDR3-compatible Phenom II range is also consentaneous with DDR2 memory. As the new CPUs and the new AM3 socket are pin-compatible with the current AM2+ socket, you can put a new AM3-compatible CPU into an existent AM2+ motherboard. This means that you can upgrade your CPU now without needing to change your motherboard or buy pricey new DDR3 memory."
