AMD CPU Question



Not really Linux related, but the Linux followers will know the answer. ;)

On an AMD 'mobile' processor - AMN3000BIX5AP - is one I think.. it's
a socket 754 CPU.... will that fit in ANY socket 754 motherboard or
does the motherboard have to support a 'mobile' version of the CPU?
I know that the 'mobile' version is a lower power, cooler CPU designed
to fit in laptops... I see them for sale all the time and want to know
if I can pop one into a standard desktop motherboard and run with it.

Thanks - jack
