Question- PLZ help

[sandmannight]

I was no aware but I heard that AMD was coming out with a new processor NEXT year called K8L and I wanted to know that if I had a socket 939 comp and wanted to upgrade to K8L all I would have to do is buy another MoBo, Ram, and CPU right?
Thanks for the help

K8L will be socket AM2.

Socket 939 is supposed to kick the bucket at the end of this year.

but what I am asking is that all I would have to do to step up to socket AM2 is buy a new MoBo, Ram, and CPU right? Could I use all of my other componets

You need AM2 socket mobo and CPU, along with DDR2 RAM to run. SATA, SATA2, PCI-E, I think even IDE will work on AM2 fine.

Thanks for the answer
