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

Can you plug a socket 754 cpu into a socket 940 mobo ?


A freinds upgrading and he wants to know this.


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.
