Package Mechanical Specifications
The processor is packaged in a Flip-Chip Land Grid Array (FC-LGA6) package that
interfaces with the motherboard via an LGA1366 socket. The package consists of a
processor mounted on a substrate land-carrier. An integrated heat spreader (IHS) is
attached to the package substrate and core and serves as the mating surface for
processor component thermal solutions, such as a heatsink.
