What is the difference between a PGA socket and an SPGA socket?
Ktwenebo
The PGA socket has pins on the bottom of the package aligned in uniform rows.
The SPGA socket has pins on the bottom of the package that are staggered to squeeze more pins into a small space.

2) SGA invloves shared_pool, dictionary cache, log buffer, large_pool area where PGA contains the user session info.

What is the difference between a PGA scoket and an SPGA socket?
Earlier Pentiums used a pin grid array ( PGA ) socket, with pins aligned in uniform rows around the socket. Later sockets use a staggered pin grid array ( SPGA ), with pins staggered over the socket to squeeze more pins into a small space.
What is the difference between PGA and LGA?
LGA : Land Grid Array <== pins are in the socket, no pins are attached on the CPU, only pads. PGA: Pin Grid Array <== pins are attached on to the socket, the socket has some sort of "holes" that hold the processor
Why is it important to insert a processor straight down into a socket rather than sliding the processor in from the side or allowing it to tilt into the socket?
Because the pins on the bottom of the processor can be easily bent (assuming that this is a processor for a PGA (Pin Grid Array) or SPGA (Staggerd PGA) socket. It is worth noting though that a processor for a LGA (Land Grid Array) socket is not as susceptible to this as the there are lands or pads on the bottom of the processor instead of pins; the pins are in the socket. The book that asks this question assumes PGA. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Very true BUT you can bend the lands in an LGA socket, rendering the socket hence the motherboard useless!
What is the identifying factor of a PGA socket?
The CPU is the identifying factor of a pga socket
