The leader be quiet! demonstrates customer focus once again, added out-of-the-box support to LGA 1700 socket
To CES 2021Intel announced the new socket LGA-1700. The corresponding CPUs, in addition to following the technological process given by a new hybrid architecture, with performance improvements, compared to previous generations, especially due to the use of high performance and efficiency cores, brought a change to the entire structure.
The new architecture presents indeed 500 contacts additional compared to its predecessor (which is also why the nomenclature in the name has increased from 1200 to 1700), and as a result, the socket has undergone notable increases.
Thus, the heatsinks have adapted to the new amount of heat to be dissipated, with much larger surfaces than before, and above all no longer square, but rectangular. be quiet! initially addressed this “problem” by selling the Support kitnow it will be added to each new purchase included in the price, without additions, let’s see the compatible models.
