have any manufactures stated that bios updates for am2 boards will be released so the boards can take an am2+ chip?
i have checked the asus site (m2n32sli deluxe) and there is no mention of am2+ in general let alone any specific facts. 3 months ago i purchased my high end board and hope that its still got a future ???
