Intel’s upcoming Nova Lake-S desktop CPUs, rumored to launch in 2026, could introduce a brand-new LGA 1954 socket, marking yet another socket change for the company’s consumer platform.
With a total of three CPU families and 18 (technically 20) chipsets to choose from, it’s evident that the LGA 1151 socket is still very much in use, even if it is a little old now. We have discovered ...
If you’ve bought a motherboard with an Intel LGA 1700 socket lately, take a look at the socket cover. (Assuming you’re completely disassembling your PC, of course.) You might be surprised to ...
If you're looking for the best CPU that is compatible with an LGA 1151 socket, consider checking out the Intel i9-9900K processor. First off, this processor has eight cores and 16 threads, a base ...
With LGA 1851, that problem will be a thing of the past, because even though the next generation of desktop CPUs will still only have 20 PCIe 5.0 lanes at most, they can be split into three groups ...
The desktop LGA1851 socket can support 5600MHz DDR5 memory, two PCIe Gen4 SSDs, and four Thunderbolt 4 devices. There is a notable absence of chipset support for Thunderbolt 5, Wi-Fi 7, and PCIe ...
Despite the switchover to LGA 1851, the manual says it supports both socket types. The cooler in question is the Azza Cube 360 AIO, which was flagged by Techspot.
Igor’s Lab has provided some updates on Arrow Lake-S and its associated LGA 1851 socket, including 3D schematics of the CPU loading mechanism (bracket) and the chipset itself.
LGA 1150 was popular until it was replaced by LGA 1151. LGA 1151 LGA 1151, also known as Socket H4, was introduced in 2015 and is still in use. It is used for Intel’s Skylake, Kaby Lake, Coffee Lake, ...
Intel's LGA 1700 platform only offers a PCIe 4.0 x4 connection for SSDs. If you were to drop in a Gen 5 SSD, it would have to borrow eight lanes from the GPU, which are also PCIe 4.0, by the way.
