IT House January 13 news, according to the German media Igor's lab news, AMD will be applied on the Ryzen™ 7000 series processor AM5 socket 3D drawings, recently exposed. Starting with the AM5 standard, AMD will abandon the processor pins that have been used for many years and instead choose the LGA specification that Intel has always used to reduce the chance of processor damage.
From the figure, the am5 slot clip structure is very similar to Intel, all fixed by four screws, the upper clip is fixed by a connecting rod, and the back of the motherboard has a fixing plate and nut. The AM5 processor is square in shape with an octopus-shaped top cover designed to place capacitance and reduce the footprint of the bottom contact. The fastener presses against the METAL TOP OF THE CPU through two contact points, similar to Intel.
IT House learned that according to amD's official photos and previously exposed renderings, the contacts at the bottom of the AM5 specification processor are divided into two parts, with a total of 1718 contacts, which are LGA1718 specifications.
AMD Suzifeng previously said that the AM5 socket will be used for a long time, so as to achieve a high life expectancy like AM4, and subsequent motherboard chipsets will continue to provide perfect compatibility.
