First AMD AM3+ Bulldozer Motherboards Get Listed in Europe ( ... )

I've been waiting to see some 'real world' performance tests on Bulldozer. I have been wanting to build a new rig but would like to see how it compares to SandyBridge. I haven't been able to find any info yet other than what AMD has put out. But, sorry to say, I'm not a very trusting soul. I've been had before.
I with you essenbe I am curious how Bulldozer stacks up against i7 not that I am intrested in building a new AMD system but I love to see how AMD and Intel try and best each other. By the way love NW.Fl

I found the answer. According to the following article the new Bulldozer CPU's do not have the extra pin so it will fit in the AM3 socket. I think the AM3+ require higher electrical specs so that is why only certain chipsets will be able to run with the Bulldozer.

I'm looking at this in somewhat of a negative fashion from what most are, in that I'm wondering if an AM3+ motherboard will work properly with the older Phenom II x4 and x6 processors? When it comes to upgrades, I must take baby steps.

I would think so, since the AM3+ Motherboards are using the existing chip sets.

Don't know any prices but may be released in June. I heard that AMD will be releasing a new chip set also with SATA III and USB 3 support.
