AMD's Socket 754 to Outlast Socket 939

"Socket 754 shipments outlast socket 939 but AMD prepares the transition over to socket AM2

AMD has been performing very well in terms of delivering new products to the masses as well as ensuring that shipments are on time. With regards to processors and platforms, AMD is now in a position where it can diversify at its own pace and not have to be in Intel's shadow."

This can sort of make sense since the AM2 will be AMD top CPUs. S939 are their top now so then the AM2 will take over but why keep S754? Mayebe their are still thinking of budget users. Who knows as the AM2 have Sempron CPUs also.

It might be because of the OEM builders using more of the 754s than the 939s maybe, but who really knows for sure.
