Hi I wanted to upgrade my motherboard in order to get ready for the new bulldozer cpu's, Cpu-z has told me that my 955be is socket 938 and i wanted to upgrade to the SABERTOOTH 990FX, and want to make sure that my CPU will fit in the socket and work while i wait for the bulldozer cpu's, or am I out of luck?
