Socket S1g4 to S1g2

[arschl0ch]

So I have a Turion II in a socket S1g4. It's a single-core processor.
I got a Turion x2 ultra from a friend, it's a dual-core processor.
The problem is that while the sockets are mechanically the same, will the S1g2 processor work in a motherboard with DDR3 memory and a S1g4 socket?

I suspect that it won't work, but if anyone has any more information, that would be great.

usually, an am2 processor can plug into an am3, im not sure if it would be the same, but it wouldnt suprize me if they made it backwards compatible

Thanks.
Strange that stuff like that doesn't come up on google for me. =(
Anyway, hope my friend can find a use for it.
