The microprocessor is installed into the CPU socket on the motherboard. A CPU socket can only fit a certain range of microprocessors.
The Intel Core i7 processors use different CPU socket types depending on the specific generation. For example, the i7-8700K uses the LGA 1151 socket, while the i7-9700K also uses LGA 1151 but is part of the 9th generation. The more recent i7-10700K and i7-11700K utilize the LGA 1200 socket. Always check the specific generation and model for accurate socket compatibility.
The motherboard contains a socket to hold the CPU (central processing unit). This socket is specifically designed to fit the CPU's pins or pads, allowing for secure connection and communication between the CPU and other components of the computer. Different CPU architectures require different socket types, which is why compatibility is crucial when selecting a motherboard and CPU.
That refers to the place where the CPU is plugged in.
