All I have seen on the web is rumors from various sources about the June 11 release date and such. But nothing from AMD's website. What's up with that? And Also I am curious as to what socket type the processor will have...I'm sure many others are as well. Probably the best thing to do is wait.
This answer is about the kind of the socket used. It uses AM3+ based sockets, however, AM3 socket based motherboards will also work with BIO update.
