Well, you might be able to physically get a AM2 chip into a socket, but it won't work. AMD has alternated from to to AM2 with a pattern but different internals. If nothing else, a tap with a hammer would make it fit, but then it still wouldn't work.
Besides the pin difference, there's also the matter of the different memory controller. So, thanks for the prompt reply, and I promise I won't ask it again. Oct 3, 0 18, 0. Mar 29, 41 0 18, 0. So basically what happened was AM2 took S out back, with a rifle in hand and next thing you hear is a gun blast. AM2 says that S is now on a farm with all the other sockets that have been "retired". TechnologyCoordinator Splendid. Feb 22, 4, 0 22, 4. Jul 6, 8, 3 31, You can still use the cooler: The stock socket cooler fits the AM2 socket.

But you still cannot fit an AM2 on a , and expect it to work Apr 29, 28, 75, 2, The stock socket cooler fits the AM2 socket. Mar 19, 0 18, 0. Shadow Champion. Feb 3, 15, 0 51, S uses two screws, while AM2 uses four.
The heatsinks might be the same, but you need different mounting hardware. You can't just take a stock S cooler and put it on an AM2 board. But he never posted back with success.
If they changed the bracket, I'm sure they changed it so that you can't mount the heatsink on the AM2 bracket. AM2 cannot and will not ever have intercourse with a S It just wont happen.

Although you can physically install newer processors in motherboards with older sockets, and they should theoretically work with reductions in bus speeds and memory support, this also requires BIOS support in the specific motherboard, which may be lacking.
In general, you are best off matching the processor to a motherboard with the same type of socket. It features pins in a by grid, with the pins in the socket instead of on the processor. Socket F normally appears on motherboards in pairs because it is designed to run dual physical processors on a single motherboard.
Socket F was utilized by AMD for its Quad FX processors, which are dual-core processors sold in matched pairs, operating as a dual socket dual-core system. Future versions may support quad-core processors, for a total of eight cores in the system. Due to the high expense of running dual physical processors, only a limited number of nonserver motherboards are available with Socket F. It was replaced by Socket FM2. These include the Ax-5xxx series APUs.
The figure below illustrates Socket FM Topics CPUs. See all comments Keep it coming. Ugggh, got to page two before being disgusted this time. This author is back to writing fiction. The Pentium 5th generation, in case the author didn't know, thus the "Pent" , DID execute x86 instructions. It was the Pentium Pro that didn't. That was the sixth generation.
They can't execute x86 instructions effectively, so they break it down to RISC type operations, and then execute it. They pay the penalty of adding additional stages in the pipeline which slows down the processor greater branch mispredict penalty , adds size, and uses power. If they are equal, why would anyone take this penalty? Admittedly, the terms aren't carved in stone, and the term can be misleading, as it's not necessarily the number of instructions that defines RISC.
Even so, there are clear differences. RISC has fixed length instructions. CISC generally does not. RISC has much simpler memory addressing modes.
The main difference is, RISC does not have microcoding to execute instructions - everything is done in hardware. Obviously, this strongly implies much simpler, easier to execute instructions, which make it superior today. However, code density is less for RISC, and that was very important in the 70s and early 80s when memory was not so large.
