When buying a motherboardthe CPU needs to be compatibleexplain?
Each motherboard possesses certain socket type, for instance, from Intel LGA 771, LGA 775, Socket 478, 604, Socket M and P, for AMD Socket 754, 939, 940, AM2, AM2+, Socket F and socket S1. Thus, when you are going to buy a motherboard you have to have or buy a CPU with the same type of socket. A CPU with one type of socket will not fit another type of socket!
Will AM2 socket AM2 plus?
yes
Are AMD AM2 plus and AM2 socket processors compatible?
you will need to get pin count between your mobo and the processor you want to use Ok thank you, both are 940 pin AM2+ sockets are backwards compatible with both AM2 and AMD2+ processors. While AM2 sockets should be able to accept any AM2+ processor as well as AM2 CPUs, this usually is dependent on a BIOS upgrade of the system first, and many manufacturers have not provided such support.
Do Intel CPUs have a form factor known as Am2?
No. The AM2 socket was designed by AMD in 2006 as a follow up to the popular 939 socket. Intel Processors will not fit into a AM2 Socket.
What socket type is required for an AMD Phenom 11 that uses DDR3 RAM?
A. AM2 B. AM2+ C. AM3 D. Socket 940
What is AM2 socket?
An AM2 Socket is a type of socket used by a Processor on a motherboard. These are AMD processors, as indicated by the "AM". When you buy a motherboard and processor you must make sure that they have the same socket and that your motherboard supports the processor you have chosen.

Hom many pins are there in a processor socket?
Depends on what socket you get. Each may be different. E.G: LGA 771 LGA 775 LGA 1366 Socket 478 Socket 939 Socket AM2 Socket AM2+ Socket AM3
Is it possibly to connect a Socket A CPU to a Socket AM2 motherboard?
No, it's not.
Is it possible connect AM2 CPU to socket A anyhow?
No. They both have totally different pin sizes and amount of pins. Socket AM2 has a lot more pins, socket a has 462 pins.
What processors are used with Socket AM3 Connector?
The Socket AM3 Connector is compatible with the AM3 and AM3+ processors, but not AM2 or AM2+ processors, which have 940 pins instead of the 941 pins of the AM3/AM3+.
How many does the AMD socket AM2 have?
The processors have 940 pins, but the AM2 slot on motherboards has 942 pin slots. For your question, 940 is the answer. A lot of tiny easy to bend pins..
What is a good heat sink for an am3 or am2 plus socket from 20-50 dollars?
Zalman, thermaltake.
