AMD only: DDR3 capable CPUs only (thus not compatible with AM2+ CPUs), such as Phenom II Athlon II, Sempron, Opteron 138x, and has the potential to accept AM3+ CPUs

AM3
AMD only: Specified for CPUs based on the Bulldozer microarchitecture and design to accept AM3 CPUs

Socket AM3+
AMD only: Designed to accept AMD Fusion APUs that incorporate CPUs and GPUs such as the E2-3200 and the A Series

Socket FM1
AMD only: OPteron (2xxx, 8xxx series), Athlon 64 FX (FX-7x series) and replaced by Sockets C32 and G34

Socket F (LGA)
