you guys cant go from intel to amd geez. i just helped someone going from amd to intel lol
 
ya, I don't know if anyone knew this but Intel and AMD are like enemies, there would be no way in hell that their motherboards would have compatible sockets with the other companies CPU's.
 
holy crap. who or what would lead a person to believe that they could upgrade from old style company 1 to new style company 2? They're so different....

sorry but that is a definite no. for starters that is a socket 370 motgherboard.

there would be no way in hell that their motherboards would have compatible sockets with the other companies CPU's

i'm not sure if anyone can remember a little something called socket7. you know what a pentium is right? hopefully you also know what a k5/k6 is. maybe its just me but i thought the whole k5/k6 and pentium using socket7 was AMD and Intel using the same board. thats not mentioning the Cyrix which also used socket 7.

the only way you can use a socket 939 cpu is with a socket 939 board.
 
that would be awesome, i mean a UNIVERSAL socket. so you would never have to change your mobo...wHOA
