Compatibility and Socket LGA1151
The BX80662I56500 Intel Processor is compatible with the LGA1151 socket, which is a type of socket used for Intel processors. LGA stands for “Land Grid Array” and refers to the way the processor connects to the motherboard. The LGA1151 socket is specifically designed for the 6th and 7th generation of Intel Core processors, including the Core i3, i5, i7, and i9.
When using this processor, it is important to ensure that the motherboard you choose also has an LGA1151 socket. This will ensure that the processor and motherboard are compatible and can communicate properly. Additionally, it is also important to check for other compatibility factors such as BIOS version and power supply requirements, to ensure that the processor will function correctly with your specific motherboard.
It’s worth noting that if you’re looking to upgrade your current system, it’s important to check your current motherboard socket, the LGA1151 is not compatible with LGA 1155, LGA 1150, LGA 1156 and LGA 2011 sockets, so you need to purchase a new motherboard that supports the LGA1151 socket.
