"Now dual core Opterons must take a hefty upgrade of your system? Surely a new socket and higher power consumption is headed our way. Well in fact the beauty of AMD's dual core solution is that neither is the case. As you can see from the current Opteron on the left, and the dual core model on the right both are Socket 940 compatible CPUs. Yes, you will be able to drop a dual core Opteron into your current Opteron motherboard. You will simply require a bios update to the board for the dual core Opteron function correctly."
