Zorluk: OrtaCPU Architecture Cooling and Sockets

A technician is building a high-performance workstation and installing a new processor along with an All-In-One (AIO) liquid cooling system. Which of the following statements regarding CPU socket architecture and cooling thermal management are correct? (Select TWO.)

  1. Land Grid Array (LGA) socket designs position the delicate contact pins inside the motherboard socket rather than on the processor package.Cevap
  2. The protective plastic film covering the AIO cooler's copper cold plate must be peeled off before mounting the heat sink block onto the processor.Cevap
  3. C
    Pin Grid Array (PGA) sockets utilize flat contact lands on the motherboard surface that align with spring-loaded pins inside the socket.
  4. D
    Passive cooling solutions rely on active electric fans attached directly to the metal heat sink to dissipate thermal energy from high-TDP CPUs.

Cevap

The correct statements are that Land Grid Array (LGA) sockets place the contact pins on the motherboard rather than on the CPU package, and that the plastic protective film must be removed from the AIO cooling block's copper plate before mounting.
Land Grid Array (LGA) sockets locate contact pins inside the motherboard socket mating with flat pads on the CPU package. Additionally, removing the protective factory plastic layer from an AIO liquid cooler cold plate is essential for direct thermal conduction between the CPU and the cooler.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze CPU socket architecture characteristics.
Identify that LGA sockets place pins on the motherboard socket, whereas PGA processors carry pins on the chip itself.
Understanding socket designs ensures proper handling and prevents pin damage during CPU installation.
2
Evaluate AIO thermal cooling preparation steps.
Confirm that any protective plastic covering on the cooling block's copper base must be removed before contact with thermal compound.
Failing to remove the plastic layer blocks heat transfer from the processor's integrated heat spreader (IHS) to the cooling unit.
