    Dumb AM2 Question :-)

    I forgot the deal with AM2.
    My question is: Do the AM2 mobos come with back plates, the kind you can screw screws into like 939?

    Thanks,

    OPP

    Most of the good ones do, but some of the cheaper ones probably have pushpin based heatsink brackets. Of course these backplates are different from the 939 ones since they have 4 holes instead of 2.

    Most MOBOs come with the brackets with the screws but there are a few that don't come with brackets or have there own bracket but doesn't use screws to hold it in place but use plastic clips.

    Yeah all the 590 boards should have them, the reference design does for sure. I'm guessing OPP got his hands on a k10

    Hm, i am getting a bit unsure, but when i mean CPU's i mean architecture, and the architecture that was suppose to be K9, was not enough different from K8, to get its own code name.

    But in some way you can call AM2 CPU's K9, or K8+

    We've had K9 for years... I've had a K9 for almost 5 years now. They run pretty damn fast, they just don't fit in a socket.

    I've had my K9 for 7 days now, doesn't run too fast or it gets speed wobbles.
    And I don't seem to be able to overclock the damn thing.

    I thought they couldn't use K9 because of some kind of copyrights on it.
