Socket T, also known as LGA775, is Intel's latest desktop CPU socket. A CPU socket or CPU slot is a connector on a computer's Motherboard that accepts a CPU and forms an electrical interface with it 2008 ( MMVIII) is the current year in accordance with the Gregorian calendar, a Leap year that started on Tuesday of the Common A CPU socket or CPU slot is a connector on a computer's Motherboard that accepts a CPU and forms an electrical interface with it LGA stands for Land Grid Array. The land grid array ( LGA) is a type of Surface-mount packaging used for Integrated circuits It can be electrically connected The word "socket" is now a misnomer, because an LGA775 motherboard has no socket holes, instead it has 775 protruding pins which touch contact points on the underside of the processor (CPU). [1]
The Prescott and Cedar Mill Pentium 4 cores, as well as the Smithfield and Presler Pentium D cores, currently use the LGA775 socket type. The Pentium 4 brand refers to Intel 's line of single- core mainstream desktop and Laptop Central processing units (CPUs introduced The Pentium D brand refers to two series of Dual-core 64-bit X86 processors with the NetBurst Microarchitecture manufactured In July 2006, Intel released the desktop version of the Core 2 Duo (codenamed Conroe), which also uses this socket, as does the subsequent Core 2 Quad. The Core 2 brand refers to a range of Intel 's consumer 64-bit dual-core and 2x2 MCM quad-core CPUs with the X86-64 instruction set Intel changed from Socket 478 to LGA775 because the new pin type offers better power distribution to the processor, allowing the front side bus to be raised to 1600 MT/s. In Computing, Socket 478 is a type of CPU socket used for Intel 's Pentium 4 and Celeron series CPUs. In Personal computers the Front Side Bus ( FSB) is the bus that carries data between the CPU and the northbridge. Gigatransfer (GT and Megatransfer (MT are terms used in computer technology referring to a number of data transfers (or operations The 'T' in Socket T was derived from the now cancelled Tejas core, which was to replace the Prescott core. Tejas was a code name for Intel 's Microprocessor which was to be a successor to the latest Pentium 4 with Prescott core The Pentium 4 brand refers to Intel 's line of single- core mainstream desktop and Laptop Central processing units (CPUs introduced As it is now the motherboard which has the pins, rather than the CPU, the risk of pins being bent is transferred from the CPU to the motherboard. The risk of bent pins is reduced because the pins are spring-loaded and locate onto a surface, rather than into a hole. Also, the CPU is pressed into place by a "load plate", rather than human fingers directly. The installing technician lifts the hinged "load plate", inserts the processor, closes the load plate over the top of the processor, and pushes down a locking lever. The pressure of the locking lever on the load plate clamps the processor's 775 copper contact points firmly down onto the motherboard's 775 pins, ensuring a good connection. The load plate only covers the edges of the top surface of the CPU; the center is free to make contact with the cooling mechanism placed on top of the CPU.

The force from the load plate ensures that the processor is completely level, giving the CPU's upper surface optimal contact with the heat sink or cold-water block fixed onto the top of the CPU to carry away the heat generated by the CPU. A heat sink (or heatsink) is an environment or object that absorbs and dissipates heat from another object using Thermal contact (either direct or radiant This socket also introduces a new method of connecting the heat dissipation interface to the chip surface and motherboard. With Socket T, the heat dissipation interface is connected directly to the motherboard on four points, compared with the two connections of the Socket 370 and the "clamshell" four-point connection of the Socket 478. In Computing, Socket 478 is a type of CPU socket used for Intel 's Pentium 4 and Celeron series CPUs. This was done to avoid the reputed danger of the heatsinks/fans of pre-built computers falling off in transit. LGA775 was announced to have better heat dissipation properties than the Socket 478 it was designed to replace; but the Prescott core CPUs (in their early incarnations) ran much hotter than the previous Northwood-core Pentium 4 CPUs, and this initially neutralized the benefits of better heat transfer. The Pentium 4 brand refers to Intel 's line of single- core mainstream desktop and Laptop Central processing units (CPUs introduced However, modern Core 2 processors run at lower temperatures than the Prescott CPUs they replace. The Core 2 brand refers to a range of Intel 's consumer 64-bit dual-core and 2x2 MCM quad-core CPUs with the X86-64 instruction set
All socket T processors (Pentium 4, Celeron, Core 2 (and extreme) and Quad Xeon) have the following mechanical maximum load limits which should not be exceeded during heatsink assembly, shipping conditions, or standard use. Load above those limits will crack the processor die and make it unusable.
| Location | Dynamic | Static |
|---|---|---|
| IHS Surface | 756 N (170 lbf) | 311 N (70 lbf) |
The transition to the LGA packaging has lowered those load limits, which are smaller than the load limits of Socket 478 processors but they are bigger than Socket 370 and Socket A processors which were fragile.
