Hi i have a current amd 64 3000 can't remember socket name. the new gigabyte mobos support amd 64s . . would my current cpu work?

It'll be either a socket 939 or 754 proc.

The newer ones are socket 939's. I'd have a (very) rough guess at the 3000 would be a 754.

If I remember you have a GA K8N pro board? which is a s754 board so you will have to buy a s939 board if you want an X2 or 939 chip
The 3000 comes in both flavours I believe

No - s754 processors are not compatible with s939 mobos. You would need a new processor with that board.
