No, Rev F is different than Socket F ... you can get a Turion X2 TL for a
laptop with socket S1 but still running a Rev F chip
Rev F originally meant the dual core socket F chips built in 90nm but later
other chips derived from the opterons but used different sockets kept the rev
F...
If you want to know the socket, you can run dmidecode. Look for the processor
section and under there Socket Information. Most boards (at least all but one
of the ones I'm running right now) provide you a proper socket identifier.
