    Yep, they should do as they are still Socket A and the chipset is pretty new, but like flix said, you may well have to flash the Bios!

    Ah yes, the hammer series, I was talking about the latest XP CPUs which should be fine with the Dragon Ultra!

    were talking about the difference between Palomino and Thoroughbred cores on the XP. Palomino= .18 Thoroughbred =.13. The socket and form factor are the same.

    AMD made a promise that the new clawhammer will work with Socket A based mobos that supports XP's.

    I believe the ClawHammer uses the socket 754.. and can be seen below

    Note the absence of HSF lugs. Replaced by a similar mounting system to that of the P4... Something IsaacSibson emphatically pointed out a while ago :D
