I am building a computer for my mother. This is going to be my first AMD build and I have to admit that AMD's socket designations suck!
This build does not have to be all that powerful and money is the bigger issue, so I want to go with a quad-core AM3 processor. However, the AM3+ motherboards typically have the best features. I am thinking about upgradability, as this will probably be mine at some point.
Is it possible to use an AM3 processor in an AM3+ board?
