AMD stops production of Socket 939 Opterons

You can see that the company has stopped production of Sempr0n 2500+, 3100+ and Athlon 64 3000+, 3200+ and 3500+, all in Processor-In-Box (PIB) format. At the end of the list, all Opterons using Socket 939. Is this a preparation for early Socket M2 launch?

This sucks, as I know many people who are wanting to buy a 939 Optie but have been unable thus far. Too bad, because I considered these to be one of the finest values in CPU history. Oh well, we’ll see what AMD has up their sleeve I guess. Check out the posting at the Inq.
