The block, which is all metal, is common to all current socket types. The retention bracket is the only difference. You may have been looking at the HP which does have a plastic top.

Read the description under MOUNTING. This is the only text in the product description that refers to Sockets 939,940. Pretty poor marketing if I may say so. I wonder how many sales they've lost due to that blunder in the product name which implies Socket 754 only.
