AMD Opterons get number changes - Socket AM3?
@ 2006/03/29AT CEBIT we came across a few people mentioning the next AMD socket called, wait for it, AM3.
If you can't figure it out, it is the successor to AM2, and it supports DDR3 while AMD does DDR2. If you look at AMD's future chips, you can see that Santa Rosa does DDR2 and Cerebus does FBD, so that would put AM3 on Deerhound.
