gollark: Stuff after that is probably fine.
gollark: Basically all pre-Zen AMD stuff is noncompetitive and bad.
gollark: The chipset does matter, though, since boards with older chipsets might not support newer CPUs even if the sockets match.
gollark: Anyway, LGA1156 (westmere/nehalem), LGA1155 (sandy/ivy bridge) and LGA1150 (haswell/broadwell) are the desktoppy DDR3-supporting sockets.
gollark: You could just put in an i7 or xeon which supports that socket.
