Pretty sure this motherboard uses the LGA 1366 socket. This slot is used for most of the i3-i7 line of Intel processors, which are all multi-core processors. Yes it will support multi-core processing!
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+.
Socket 370 was used by the last of the Pentium IIIs, their corresponding low-end equivalent Celerons, and certain VIA processors.
775 - but almost phased out 1156 - for coewi3 nad core i5 1366 - for flagship i7 there are others for the xeon server chips (i think) but that's business and enterprise not consumer
Socket A is also known as Socket 462. This CPU socket is used for AMD processors, manufactured by Athlon Thunderbird.
Socket 7 is used by the following processors: * Intel Pentium (75 MHz to 200 MHz) * Intel Pentium MMX (166 MHz to 233 MHz) * AMD K5 (75 MHz to 133 MHz) * AMD K6 (166 MHz to 300 MHz) * AMD K6-2 (233 MHz to 550 MHz) * AMD K6-III (350 MHz to 500 MHz) * WinChip (180 MHz to 250 MHz) * Cyrix 6x86 (100 MHz to 233 MHz) Note that most Socket 5 processors can also be used on a Socket 7 motherboard.
Older X86 Architecture that was primarily used as a replacement for Socket 5. Commonly used for the Intel P5 Pentium processors. Also used for AMD K5 and K6 processors. Supported speeds from as low a 70mhz to 233mhz.

LGA 775 processors are supported by LGS 775 sockets. Most, if not all, Intel processors are LGA 775, and almost no, if any, AMD processors are LGA 775. At www.newegg.com look up your processor and check the specifications to see what socket type it is.
The Socket 478 connector is used for Intel Pentium 4 processors and their Celeron equivalents.
Socket 1366 Socket 1156 Socket 1155 Socket LGA 2011 are in use presently
Pentium II Processors were slot-based, and did not use a socket like most processors did. Imagine a game boy cartrige-- The Pentium II had a connection band just like a game cartrige does.Socket (Slot) Types used by PII:Slot 1MMC-1MMC-2Mini-Cartridge
