A VLIF socket is a componet used to lock and hold the computers CPU in place by using a set screw to do this.
A CPU socket is a mechanical connection. Its main function is to serve as a connection that holds the CPU and allows it to communicate with the motherboard.
A CPU socket is a mechanical connection that holds the CPU and allows it to communicate with the motherboard. Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) sockets will have a leaver at the side that allows the user to remove the CPU chip easier. They also contain a load plate that will hold the CPU in place, allowing maximum contact with the heat sink. Depending on the CPU being installed, the socket will have either small holes (for PGA CPUs) or metal contacts (for LGA CPUs).

The microprocessor is installed into the CPU socket on the motherboard. A CPU socket can only fit a certain range of microprocessors.
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
That refers to the place where the CPU is plugged in.
It is more expensive than a single CPU socket motherboard
Socket 478
Socket A.
the VLIF socket is used to make use of the set screw to lock the CPU into place.
