As far as I'm aware even if we get steamroller chips this year they'll still be AM3+

I would be very surprised if AMD came out with a new socket, its one of the reasons why people buy AMD products is because of the longevity of the platform.

Although i would love for them to move to  LGA socket instead of the current PGA design they are using. Probably not gonna happen anytime soon tho.
