Socket 603

Socket 603 is used with the Intel Xeon processor in DP (dual processor) and MP

(multiple processor) configurations. These are typically used in motherboards designed

for use in network file servers. Figure shows Socket 603.

Figure 3.25 Socket 603 is used by the Intel Xeon

processor.

Socket 754

Socket 754 is used with the initial releases of the AMD

Athlon 64 processors. Socket 754 is also used by some

versions of the AMD Sempron, AMD's economy

processor line. This socket supports single-channel

unbuffered DDR SDRAM. Figure 3.26 shows an overhead

view of this socket.

Figure 3.26 Socket 754. The large cutout corner at the lower

left indicates pin 1.

Socket 939 and 940

Socket 939 is used with the Socket 939 versions of the AMD

Athlon 64, 64 FX, and 64 X2 (see Figure). It's also used by

some recent versions of the AMD Opteron processor for

workstations and servers. Motherboards using this socket

support conventional unbuffered DDR SDRAM modules

in either single- or dual-channel mode, rather than the

server-oriented (more expensive) registered modules

required by Socket 940 motherboards. Sockets 939 and 940

have different pin arrangements and processors for each and

are not interchangeable.
