but can u tell me dose all programs and games support Quad core ???

Only some of the new games support Quad Cores. But I picked Q6600 because it's in the same price like the E6750, but get two more cores, and it's futureproof. Quad Core support will improve soon, probably after AMD will release their Phenom series.

I don't know why you said that.

AM2 Motherboards will support upcoming AMD processors with just a bios update. This is no different to socket 775 intel motherboards that require a bios update to run newer core2s.

dont think so
start sending some mails to asus,gigabyte,msi...
you will get same answare
only AM2+ mbos will support new cores
(most of old 775 boards cant support for core duo because of fsb and rest )

anyway will ask them again maybe I AM wrong

edit:>> sended but last time i got one big NO because some chipsets wont support it
havent asked more after that mail

Asus' website clearly stated that my motherboard (M2N32-Sli Deluxe) will support AM2+ cpus when they are released, you can look there and see for yourself. I have seen at least 2 cpu-z screenshots of the phenoms running on nvidia 590 chipset AM2 boards, whether they are the real are not I don't know.

Anyway in a few weeks all shall be revealed.

if that is true that will be great
i have founded one more mbo(DFI infinity sli board) cheaper, around 80$ (not used and with only 6months warranty)

Here are the new AM2+ motherboards from Asus and Gigabyte:
Asus M3A32-MVP Deluxe
Asus M3A32-MVP Deluxe/Wifi-AP
Gigabyte DS4, DS5 and DQ6

As you can see the AM2+ boards are also compatible with AM2 cpus. So now we know AM2 works on AM2+ and AM2+ works on AM2. Of course the use of AM2+ cpus allows faster RAM depending on the motherboard.
