Only I7 CPU family, no other processors.
Socket A.
Each motherboard possesses certain socket type, for instance, from Intel LGA 771, LGA 775, Socket 478, 604, Socket M and P, for AMD Socket 754, 939, 940, AM2, AM2+, Socket F and socket S1. Thus, when you are going to buy a motherboard you have to have or buy a CPU with the same type of socket. A CPU with one type of socket will not fit another type of socket!
It is a type of array to fit into an intel Socket 370 or Socket 478 CPU socket.
ZIF
They are basically formats for which CPU format will fit into what board. For example, any core 2 duo processor from Intel is probably an LGA 775 and will fit into LGA 775 socket motherboard. Any Core i7 processor will fit into any LGA 1366 socket motherboard. The list goes on.
The CPU fits into a specific slot on the motherboard known as a CPU socket. This socket type varies depending on the CPU architecture, with common types including LGA (Land Grid Array) and PGA (Pin Grid Array). The socket ensures proper alignment and electrical connections between the CPU and the motherboard. It's essential to match the CPU with the compatible socket type to ensure proper functionality.
