Which socket by AMD used a land grid array rather than a pin grid array?
Socket F
Which are ways to connect a CPU to a socket?
Land grid array and Pin grid array
What does PGA mean in computing?
PGA Pin Grid Array is the socket that holds the CPU, there is also the LGA/ land grid array
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
What is the difference between plga775 and lga775?
LGA stands for Land Grid Array (which means that the pins are integrated into the motherboard within the socket and not into the CPU) and PLGA stands for Plastic Land Grid Array. Which means that the socket is made of plastic.
What is the latest socket used by intell desktop processors?
The latest Intel socket uses a land grid array (LGA) that uses lands rather than pins. The release of the i7 has shadowed the LGA775 with the all new, Socket B (LGA 1366).
What is the difference between Land Grid Array and Pin Grid Array?
One has pin in front, one has land
What is an lga775 and how does it work?
The LGA 775, or Socket T, is an Intel CPU socket for the desktop. Its job is to provide mechanical and electrical connections between the microprocessor and the PCB. LGA stands for Land Grid Array.
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 Defference of the LGA and PGA?
LGA and PGA can be understood as opposites.” Land Grid array“.
Why is a land socket preferred to a pin socket?
The land socket uses lands rather than pins. Because it is easier to install and remove.
Can you put an Intel processor if it only uses AMD processors?
Unfortunately, no. AMD uses the Pin Grid Array socket system, where the processor has many pins that fit into holes on the motherboard. Intel, on the other hand, uses what is called the Land Grid Array socket system, where there are many pins on the motherboard's processor socket that connect with contacts on the processor. They're completely reverse systems, and attempting to use one with the other will result in severe, unrepairable damage to both the processor and the motherboard. Please do not attempt to use any Intel processor with a motherboard that uses AMD processors, or vice-versa.
