There are divisions on this forum on GPUs, mobos etc. but I see no division about processors, so I post it here, on general hardware. ok, what I need, is actual data about this good old processor.
The site:
but the site:
AMD Phenom II X4 940 BE Specs | TechPowerUp CPU Database
says "AM3" - which means both DDR2 and DDR3 controllers onboard this particular processor model, like majority of that series.
Which one is true?
I own such processor working on AM2+ mobo - chipset 790GX
As second hand AM3 - AM3+ mobos and DDRAM3-s are quite cheap, I need to know, if this particular processor model will work on AM3/3+ mobo.
The site:
AMD Phenom II X4 940 Black Edition - HDZ940XCJ4DGI / HDZ940XCGIBOX (cpu-world.com)
says "AM2" which means no DDR3 controller, only DDR2 - right? Other than most Phenom II X4 models.but the site:
