Intel Xeon Processors
This socket was designed for first-generation Pentium 4 processors. If you're considering an upgrade then your options are pretty limited.
Socket PAC418 is a 418 pin microprocessor socket designed to interface an Intel Itanium processor to the rest of the computer (usually via the motherboard). It provides both an electrical interface as well as physical support. This socket is designed to support a microprocessor module.
No. The AM2 socket was designed by AMD in 2006 as a follow up to the popular 939 socket. Intel Processors will not fit into a AM2 Socket.
Socket 7LGA775 socket
The Socket AM3 Connector is compatible with the AM3 and AM3+ processors, but not AM2 or AM2+ processors, which have 940 pins instead of the 941 pins of the AM3/AM3+.
I7 Processors use socket LGA775.
A socket 754 motherboard is the primary substrate of a computer. It was designed and developed by Analog Micro Devices (AMD) to host Athlon 64 desktop processors. Socket 754 technology was retired in 2006 and has been replaced with socket 939.
Socket 370 was used by the last of the Pentium IIIs, their corresponding low-end equivalent Celerons, and certain VIA processors.
In computer hardware, a socket type is the designated type of slot where other cards and processors will fit into. Some socket types include PCI, ISA and PCI-express. A common socket type for processors is the LGA 775.
CPU socket 939 was released by AMD in 2004, it supports both single and dual core processors. Socket 939 supersedes socket 754 for Anthlon 64 processors, it is no longer in production.
