Yup, that's how AMD are doing the backwards compatibility this time round, old cpus can be put into new boards, but new cpus can't go in old boards.

( where as before you could normally stick a new cpu in an older board I'm sure you know, but others could be reading : ] )

Also woot! although not a fan of msi boards, think I'll be buying a am3+ board asap as whilst running this cheap n cheerful board is nice, even though it doesn't burn up when I do it, I don't trust running my cpu with extra voltage through it

Also! Can't wait for AMD to drop their stupid damn mounting system for one that has equal spacing mounting holes so cooler compatibility is greater.
