Actually I know what adaptor you are refering to, and I have used them a number of times, but that is not what I am refering to. I'm almost 90% sure it was P4 related. Perhaps to adapt some older versions of P4's to new P4 MB's, I honestly can't remember, but again almost sure it was P4. :-(
i should make a revision to my top answer. the 939 boards are not for the FX series.

that the frist i heard of an adapter for the P4 that would come in handy thanks for the update.

eccs19 i think the adapter your talking about my be the one to adapt a socket type P2 cpu to fit a slot 1 mobo. thats the only cpu adapter i no of.
buckeyes33 from what was writon on the link callandor posted there is also a line of non-FX 64 cpus made for socket 939.
this is fustrating y on earth would they come out with a thred socket type for the 64s its just silly ness.
any way thanks to all of u for your time.
