"Flip chip" is a CPU packaging term, it just refers to the way the CPU is put into the physical device you install. But they changed the chips slightly so new boards are needed for them.
Check out any of the big hardware review sites for information on current boards, like www.anandtech.com (http://www.anandtech.com)
