Which socket is better, LGA 1150, LGA 1151, LGA 1155?

Question

Iron

I searched Google but did not find a normal comparison.
What is the difference between these sockets?
Is it worth it to pay attention to sockets at all, or should I just choose the CPU that suits my needs and then choose the MP?
Are lm they backwards compatible?

Answer 1

I'm not special, but here's what I can say from the page on the wiki
New sockets make it possible to install new processors))), new processors with new architectures, how the outcome works better than the old ones)), plus new processors make it possible to install new RAM,
I I would buy a motherboard with 1150 now, since there are a lot of them now and they are cheap + there are also a lot of processors and they are also cheap)), 1155 are already old men and there are few of them, but 1151 is already a skylike, it is already TOP there and ddr 4 and super powerful prots , you can even find a motherboard with an hdmi connector

Answer 2

The socket is more important for hardware developers than for the user.
Intel already seems to have the sixth generation of their Core i3 / 5/7, sockets change along with the generations.
As far as I remember, their desktop processors had LGA1155 before Ivy Bridge, then they switched to LGA1150 / LGA1151 (the full list is on Wikipedia, and Yandex.Market also shows it). I don’t remember about backward compatibility, it didn’t seem to be, or it was incomplete.
I personally don’t see much point in taking a processor of previous generations (unless, of course, you buy for an existing motherboard), incl. if Intel, then Core i3 / 5/7 Skylake on LGA1151, well, or Haswell on LGA1150 - one powerful number crusher (although I didn’t notice a big difference in price during a quick inspection).

Answer 3

all bullshit except for bees,
none of the respected comrades mentioned memory at all,
if you are concerned about the possibility of a further upgrade, you will suddenly find that there is no particular choice.
The layout is as follows: the most difficult to replace and most useful in a computer is memory
. 32, 64 or maybe 128. Even if not now, but in the future.
then be aware that in a year the memory bars will be different - i.e. already now it’s not possible to install DDR3, and take such motherboards - in a couple of years an upgrade of such memory will cost more than a processor or a simple laptop
, half or all of the sockets you listed will disappear in this place
After determining with memory, you select a percent for it. Here you suddenly find that for many i (7-5-3) - 64GB - the ceiling, but Xeon - that's it. But maybe you don't need that much.
choosing a percent - you look under it motherboard. More SATA3 connectors, maybe you can find SAS (there are such, if necessary, of course), or there are 2-3-4 PCI slots if a gamer. Well, all the same support for your amount of memory - here motherboards may also not be up to par - 32 max is usually a phenomenon, 128 is generally 1-2, 64 is also a small choice, but there is.
