Do they have the same pin out ?
Thanks

Re: AM2+ and AM3 socket ?
Amd Cpus are very tolerant regarding different sockets ..Many Amd Cpus for AM3 socket can be used on AM2+ . The last one i did was a Phenom 2 on Am2+ , but they will show less performance of what are they supposed to show , because they cannot benefit from their equipped special extensions and features .
Best way usually to confirm this tolerance is to download the board manual and compare what Cpus can usually take..Comment

Re: AM2+ and AM3 socket ?
If the motherboard supports DDR2 memory then yes. If the motherboard uses DDR3 then it won't work. AM2 and AM3 processors are pin compatible, but AM2/AM2+ processors only support DDR2 memory because the memory controller is on the cpu.
For future reference
AM2/AM2+ = DDR2 only
AM3 = DDR2/DDR3
AM3+ = DDR3 onlyComment

I have seen many posts where the eMMC can be read via a SD card reader, however can the opposite be achieved?
Read/Write a Micro SD Card from an eMMC Socket.
I have a Motherboard with a Kingston BGA153 ball socket, using HS400 bus mode, which is 8bit, as Micro SD is usually 1bit or 4bit mode, I accept that a loss of speed in read/write will occur, but I would sill like to convert.
Theoretically speaking, Im thinking if I hard solder DAT0-3 from eMMC to SD Card Reader, this should force 4-bit mode, or only DAT0 to force 1-bit mode.

Hello, Acer AN515-57-577G JDIMM1 socket does not work. GH51G LA-L181P, 2x DDR4 RAM, both good, both work well in JDIMM2, neither works in JDIMM1. The laptop displays BIOS, when the JDIMM2 socket is occupied, you can run Linux on USB, then everything seems to work ok, there is internet access and you can browse the contents of the 512 GB SSD in Windows, but starting Windows ends with an eternal spinning circle, maybe there are corrupted files. When the RAM is inserted into the JDIMM1 socket, the laptop starts but there is no image and the downloaded current does not change and the output is ~2.25A....

I have been working to develop a consistent and reliable method/workflow for removing, re-balling, and replacing CPUs on various MacBook Pro models (2015-2020).
I have done OK so far, but there's one detail I need to sort out. I'm hoping someone much more experienced than myself may be able to shed some light:
I am noticing the pulled CPUs (to be re-balled) come off fine, and they "look" fine as well, immediately when I pull them. However, within a few minutes, after cooling, the CPU chips develop a very, very slight curve/bend. It's SO SLIGHT, maybe a 1-2%... -
I have a Tomohawk B550 that die suddenly. No BSOD, no weird sign or no POST/boot just a day before it happened. Fans are spinning, BIOS had flashed several times, CMOS cleared, battery removed, etc. CPUs--5600 and 3700X were tested working on 3 other boards--Aorus X570/Auros B550M-Pro-P/TUF X570, so as the PSUs--RM650x/HX650 , as well as the DRAMs, all components are tested working. The only indicator it show was DRAM LED kept lit up, no beep. The same symptom also happen on my 9 years old TUF X99 board but thats another topic, probably due to age.
Today I bring out the board to check...11-16-2024, 12:27 PM -
Hi there,
I'm a technician and a computer/retro computer lover.
I just bought a great Sabertooth motherboard (I really love the colours and the ASUS military scheme) to install a nice FX-8320 from AMD and make a gaming computer with a Geforce GTX 970.
For the first time I had problems with the system, but I solved and then correctly booting, I installed Windows 10 and then I started to overclock the system. I reached a stable configuration of 4,8GHZ with 1,475v.
Then I saved fan configuration, and other parameters, and saved to the overclock profile...
