Re: [Xen-users] AMD ATHLON 64 X2 5200+ AM2 and Supermicro H8SMA-2 A64/Opteron a good choice?



I take that back... I glanced at the supermicro page and saw "Single 
940-pin ZIF Socket" and missed the multiple references to "Socket AM2" ... 

I would _assume_ you could put an X2 in there, but I'm not the expert.
