Brand: Intel · SKU: INT-LGA1155-H2 · MPN: LGA1155 · Category: Components
Socket H2, officially known as LGA 1155, is a zero insertion force land grid array (LGA) CPU socket designed by Intel for its Sandy Bridge (2nd Gen) and Ivy Bridge (3rd Gen) microarchitecture processors. Released in 2011 as the successor to LGA 1156 (Socket H), it features 1,155 contact pins arranged in a 40x40 array. The socket provides robust connectivity for high-performance desktop and server processors, supporting dual-channel DDR3 memory and PCI Express 2.0 or 3.0 interfaces depending on the processor and chipset. It is typically found on motherboards using Intel 6-series and 7-series chipsets. The physical component is constructed from high-temperature thermoplastic with copper alloy pins and is designed for surface-mount soldering (BGA) onto printed circuit boards.
