A. AM2 B. AM2+ C. AM3 D. Socket 940
yes
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.
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+.
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.

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
No, it's not.
No.
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 type of socket is used to install system memory
What type of socket is used to install system memory
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.
