Explanation
Socket F (also called Socket 1207) and Socket 940 are both AMD-specific CPU sockets. Socket 940 was used for AMD Athlon 64 FX and first-generation Opteron processors. Socket F (1207 pins) was designed for AMD Opteron server processors using a land grid array design on the processor side. The other options are Intel sockets: LGA is Intel's Land Grid Array platform family, Socket 775 (LGA 775) supports Intel Core 2 and Pentium 4 processors, and Socket 1155 (LGA 1155) supports Intel Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge processors. AMD and Intel use entirely different, incompatible socket designs.
