The Appearance Of The 12th-generation Core LGA1700 Socket Is Exposed And Is Not Compatible With Existing Coolers
Intel will officially launch the 12th-generation Core processor at the end of October. It will use the core architecture for the first time, support DDR5 memory and PCIe 5.0 bus, and will switch to the LGA1700 package interface. The 13th-generation Core will also use the same interface in the future.
At present, the spy photos of LGA1700 have been exposed, the internal code is "15R1", and it is also marked with the mark "LGA-17xx/LGA-18xx", which also implies that the socket has hundreds of unused contacts, mainly for Future products are reserved, maybe the 14th generation Core will be used.
The specification of the LGA1200 package interface is 37.5×37.5 mm, which is a square. On this basis, the LGA1700 package interface has been extended by 7.5 mm and changed to a rectangle with a size of 37.5×45.0 mm.
Although the package interface has become larger, Intel has also adjusted the socket installation and fixing bracket specifications, so the entire socket area has not increased. Therefore, the heatsink mounting hole position is also unchanged, and the size is 78×78 mm.
However, the shape and height of the socket have changed, and it is not compatible with the existing heatsink and cannot be used continuously. But many manufacturers have already introduced adapter brackets.
The twelfth-generation Core processor is Intel’s most changed generation in recent years. It uses a new large and small core architecture and Intel 7, plus support for DDR5 memory PCIe 5.0 channels, so the 600 series motherboards will also undergo a lot of changes, so It is also normal that it is incompatible with the previous hardware.
Thermal solutions for every kind of industry is very important as the power is gradually higher and higher, Sinda Thermal can provide varieties heatsinks and coolers which inlcuding aluminum extruded heatsink, high performance heatsink, copper heatsink, skived fin heatsink, and heat pipe heatsink. please contact us if you have any questions about thermal solution.
