hey.. Stop worrying about the future. Your CPU is a powerful one, even if it is socket 754. This is future and NOBODY knows. that's it! only speculation, nothing sure.
Just like when they announced SATA some years ago, saying that it will be becoming the new standard. Yes it is. can you still get PATA HDD. Yes you can.
There is so much nice thing to do in life that worrying about the future of your computer should be the very last thing. Is my CPU becoming obsolete? I dont care. Is my temperature normal? I dont care. Will new CPU be running on my current motherboard? I dont care.
We are today. And today, my computer run fine. When it wont, then I'll start worrying. Until there, it is spring, summer is on its way, girls are getting less and less dressed with the beautiful sun and THAT I care.
Maybe I should start worrying about my 4X4 not being adequate in the future if we get another ice age... Oh, will my house be large enough in case I'll have so many kids... I'd like to have a good air conditioner for the house because I heard about that global warming. Will my house becoming too hot???
-Always put the blame on you first, then on the hardware, UNLESS YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH A MSI BOARD !!!
