Can someone tell me what processor will work with this bord? http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProductDesc.asp?description=56-115-017&catalog=23&manufactory=BROWSE

I don't believe I know what fits that socket.

Socket A/462 processors will work.
That means Athlon XP's and some Semprons.

It clearly states: "CPU Support: AMD Athlon/XP/Duron 400MHz FSB"
That means Athlon, AthlonXP, Sempron, Duron, any anything that is Socket A based.

Well no kidding sherlock. However when you try and select that socket type from the left dropdown menu on newegg it isn't listed. Making me wonder where the typo is.

Yes however it is being marketed as a socket 462 not a Socket A and when the last thing I built was my duel opteron i didnt know that socket A and 462 were the same. All MOBO's i've bought have said socket A. So when you click on the drop down menu and all the sockets are listed there is no 462 listed.

Come on folks, I don't think anyone should be belittled for something they didn't know. Hell, I don't know a lot of things that I probably should. I would hate to feel put down because I asked about something that most people knew. Sermon over. Now, I think I'll have a glass of that alter wine. LOL
