They will fit on the current boards, but the problem is the current boards can't feed the current needed to the chip. It will be a Socket 478, but require more current than the boards can supply.

I've almost always used Asus motherboards in the past and have been very happy with them. When I heard about this board I jumped on it because all of the advanced features. It cost a lot more than others but IMO it's worth the extra $$$.
