AM3+ is a modification of the AM3 Socket designed for future "Zambezi" CPUs which use the new Bulldozer microarchitecture and will retain compatibility with AM3 processors. The set of features is not yet known. An early preview of a motherboard from MSI, indicates Socket AM3+ is also known as Socket AM3b. The pin-count for this revised socket is 942-pins. Some manufacturers have announced that some of their AM3 motherboards will support AM3+ CPUs, after a simple BIOS upgrade. Mechanical compatibility has been confirmed and it's possible AM3+ CPUs will work in AM3 boards, provided they can supply enough peak current. Another issue might be the use of the sideband temperature sensor interface for reading the temperature from the CPU. Also, certain power-saving features may not work, due to lack of support for rapid VCore switching. Note that use of AM3+ CPUs in AM3 boards may not be officially supported by AMD.
