After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain. I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain. If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration.
Please update your bookmarks and be sure to visit the new and improved Ninjalane at Hardwareasylum.com

Installing an Intel 775 LGA Processor
Published: Wednesday, July 4, 2007 - General_InformationTraditionally processors have always featured a pin and socket packaging system that would enable you to interchange processors.
