Is socket 462 the same thing as socket A?

[Cawchy87]

I have a duron 800mhz chip in an Abit KT7A mobo. I need a hsf for it but not sure if this one will fit. It says "socket 462" on the mobo.

Thanks for your help!

Yes, they are the same. Its like Socket T and 775.

Same difference.

I suggest you cound the pins on your board's CPU socket.
