This is a joke, right? What do you think the numbers 754 and 940 represent?
(Hint: # of pins).
Try using Google.

Absolutely. Just make sure your tool kit has a hammer, though, or you
might not get it to fit.

Dear god

is it to the stage now where you have to lie to us..
JUST GO BUY YOUR NEW COMPUTER KIT AND STOP ASKING QUESTIONS.
You'll never actually be able to buy the top line kit after a month of
research. It's really impossible.. by the time you have EVERY answer that
you want then it's time to ask more questions..
JUST GO BUY SOMETHING.

He would love to go out and buy a new computer but he is not allowed to
cross the street on his own.

According to this article 939pin CPU will fit into the 940 socket, no it
won't boot, but it will fit, unfortunately for people like the one who
started this thread. Bytheway, NO, YOU CAN'T PLUG 754 PIN CPU INTO SOCKET
940 MOBO!

940pin cpu is for Socket 940
939pin cpu is for Socket 939
754pin cpu is for Socket 754
478pin cpu is for Socket 478
462pin cpu is for Socket A
etc. and don't try anything stupid

Nonsense Lay the CPU on the mobo then back over it with an SUV. And wear a
grounding strap for God's sake. I can't believe the misinformation around
here.

Yep that worked, thats how i got my old Socket 7 cpu into the Pentium
2 board still working to this day :p
