According to our usual sources of information from Europe, AM3 processors will go on sale on Feb 8. The AM3 processor which contains two memory controllers for DDR2 and DDR3 will have 938 pins and will work on existing AM2+ boards with DDR2 and future DDR3 boards. Currently, There are a few models and they are 925 915, 820,810, 720 and 710. 9 series has a L2 of 8MB while the 8 series has lesser L3 cache of 6MB and it is also quad core. The 7 series is a tri core processor. Current Phenom II 920 and 940 will not run on AM3+ DDR3 board as DDR3 support is not available on it.

AMD Phenom II X4 925 is 2.8GHz, 8MB Cache
AMD Phenom II X4 910 is 2.6GHz, 8MB Cache
AMD Phenom II X4 810 is 2.6GHz, 6MB Cache
AMD Phenom II X4 805 is 2.5GHz, 6MB Cache
AMD Phenom II X3 720 is 2.8GHz, 7.5MB Cache
AMD Phenom II X3 710 is 2.6GHz, 7.5MB Cache

All the above processors are 938 pins and are rated at 95W and support DDR3-1333 or DDR2-1066 which will run on both current DDR2 and future DDR3 boards.

EDIT:

Interestingly AMD is planning to launch a new model together with the already known Phenom II X4 945. The latter is a direct reply to today's flagship, with the same clock frequencies and new DDR3 support. But at the same time it will announce a new top model in the form of Phenom II X4 950 operating at 3.1GHz, 100MHz higher than the 945-model, which may not be all that overwhelming. If AMD will stick to these plans remains to be seen, but we would not complain if AMD managed to raise the bar even further and perhaps even hit 3.2GHz.
