AM3+ CPUs are 942 Pins AM3 CPUs are 941, the black socket is what you need.

I suspect the stepping to correct several issues less they do this with Piledriver

BOth the ASUS CHV or 990fx Fatal1ty are the best hands down, though the MSI looks nice too.

I bought the 990fx-ud5. It seems pretty good so far. I am still waiting on my 8120 but I have a 1090T in it and it runs 4.2 no probs. I have 2815 HT which is pretty good and 265fsb.

It seems pretty stable. and very oc-able. It sticks to the old blue screen bios instead of the new graphical ones which was a surprise to me but at least I know my way around them. The slots are well spaced and it has heaps of usb headers etc...

Overall pretty happy with it so far. :)

So u have a second machine. Cuz i see ur signature specs have a Gb board. Btw that msi board of yours black socket or white socket? Cuz i heard AM3+ Cpus have 942 pins where Am3 only has 941 unless if the Am3 socket is 942 pins (white socket). Im just trying to clear up confusion is all

No second rig, just seeing if there was any difference with my old 890FX board vs the 990. The MSI board is a white socket. Not much difference other than the temps read lower then the 990. Maybe the extra pin was for better temp sensor?

ok so bulldozer does fit the white socket without bending pins.

I'm fairly certain first gen BD doesn't have 942 pins but the 2nd gen will...
It was announced in one of those BS threads before BD was released..I'm thinking it was the thread about ASUS or MSI older chipsets that would support BD...

The Socket AM3+ has 942 pins and AM3 has 941 pins, so not sure how AMD does it but Bulldozer CPU's are mechanical compatible with Socket AM3 mobo's unless these Bulldozers are only 941 pins.

A pic with BD showing the pins would work...Usually AMD only changes the pins where there are already gaps for the socket....

That's Because your using the same drivers...It only gets tricky when you switch drivers...
Such as going from a AMD SB to a Marvell chipset...
