As AM3 processors also support DDR2, they are backwards-compatible with Socket AM2\/AM2+, contingent upon a BIOS update for the motherboard. <\/p>\n<h4>Q: What do processors do Socket AM3 connector use? <\/h4>\n<p>A: Socket AM3 is a CPU socket for AMD processors. AM3 was launched on February 9, 2009 as the successor to Socket AM2+, alongside the initial grouping of Phenom II processors designed for it. The sole principal change from AM2+ to AM3 is support for DDR3 SDRAM. The fastest CPU for socket AM3 is the Phenom II X6 1100T. <\/p>\n<h4>Q: What type of socket package is an AMD Socket AM3? <\/h4>\n<p>A: AMD\u2019s next generation of processors used a new socket called the Socket AM3. This was a 940-pin socket, again using that PGA- ZIF package, and it effectively upgraded and replaced the AM2 and the AM2+ sockets. And what was interesting about this socket is that there was some backwards compatibility. <\/p>\n<h4>Q: How many pins does the AMD Socket AM3 have? <\/h4>\n<p>A: Socket AM3: The arrow (triangle) at the lower left indicates pin 1. Socket AM3+ is a modified version of AM3 designed for the new \u201cBulldozer\u201d processors. It has 938 pins, and also supports processors made for AM3 sockets. The table below shows the essential differences between Socket AM2, AM2+, AM3, and AM3+: <\/p>\n<h4>Related Post:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/romanceuniversity.org\/best\/ddr4-motherboard-am3\"><span>Ddr4 Motherboard Am3+<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/romanceuniversity.org\/best\/asus-am3-m-2-usb3-1-safeslot-amd-atx-motherboard-tuf-sabertooth-990fx-r3-0\"><span>Asus Am3+ M.2 Usb3.1 Safeslot Amd Atx Motherboard (Tuf Sabertooth 990Fx R3.0)<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/romanceuniversity.org\/best\/am3-ddr4-motherboard\"><span>Am3+ Ddr4 Motherboard<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/romanceuniversity.org\/best\/am3-liquid-cooling\"><span>Am3 Liquid Cooling<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/romanceuniversity.org\/best\/am3-cooler\"><span>Am3 Cooler<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/romanceuniversity.org\/best\/amd-cpu-cooler-retention-bracket-am3\"><span>Amd Cpu Cooler Retention Bracket (Am3+)<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/romanceuniversity.org\/best\/am3-mounting-bracket-2\"><span>Am3 Mounting Bracket<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/romanceuniversity.org\/best\/am3-plus-motherboard\"><span>Am3 Plus Motherboard<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/romanceuniversity.org\/best\/am3-waterblock\"><span>Am3 Waterblock<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/romanceuniversity.org\/best\/am3-cpu-water-cooler\"><span>Am3+ Cpu Water Cooler<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Best Socket Am3 (938) of 2025 &#8211; Reviewed and Top Rated After hours researching and comparing all models on the market, we find out the Best Socket Am3 (938) of 2025.
