Socket M2 Update

[WC Annihilus]

Well, as we already knew, this will utilize DDR2, so no surprise there. Now here we learn that, while it is very similar to current socket 940, it is not backwards. Finally, we have some bad news. The heatsink bracket for this new socket has been greatly changed. Looks like current heatsinks and such out there will most likely not be compatible Too bad for us.

On another hand, looks like AMD is pushing the release to be before June 30th of this year.

Oh well, I'm sure the new mounting design is somehow for the better, I'm not too worried

Also glad to see they are pusing up the release a bit, should give intel a run for their money!
