ASUS Proprietary but Impressive OC Socket Examined - Is it even LGA 2022?
Update: New socket pictures evidence a lot more pins than just half-dozen, yous can check the link out in the comments beneath.
[Mini-Editorial] I was pretty impressed by ASUS's recent innovation in the socket sector. I am talking ofcourse about the ASUS OC Socket, which boasts improved OC functioning by granting the user more stability and higher voltage control thanks to more pins. Now while this all an impressive feat for an AIB to exercise, it begs the question whether we are looking at LGA 2022 at all.
Is the ASUS OC Socket Intel LGA 2022 at all? Or is it really the 'LGA 20XX' Homegrown Socket?
The LGA 2022-3 is Intel'due south Socket designed to exist used with its HEDT Processors. At present the 2022 indicates the amounts of pins in the socket and the '3' indicates the revision of the socket. Now that means that any LGA 2022 socket will have exactly 2022 pins. So is the ASUS OC Socket LGA 2022 then? Umm, no technically it is not. The ASUS OC Socket is compatible with the LGA 2022 but information technology is not in reality 2022. If you were to give it a name in Intel'southward current classification it would be LGA 2022 (the OC Socket has 6 additional pins apparently). Since ASUS has basically designed a completely new socket, I wouldn't expect information technology to be rock solid and completely bug complimentary at launch.
Let'southward take a closer look at what exactly ASUS has accomplished. Haswell uses an FIVR (Fully Integrated Voltage Regulator) and every bit the new processor architectures have appeared, Intel has become more and more secretive about the workings of the pinouts. Not knowing where the voltage lines lay, ASUS basically bruteforced the unabridged contact points present on 2022 processors to figure out where the new pins should touch on to grant unhindered access to voltage. The result? ASUS OC Socket lets you effectively featherbed whatever FIVR compulsions Intel has in place. This ways that you will exist able to reach higher and more stable overclocks probably at a lower voltage. I have a feeling ASUS might be a trend setter with this and seeing they already accept a patent pending, might earn large bucks from information technology besides.
And that'due south not it either. We already know that Intel is dropping the FIVR, so it doesn't come up as a surprise that it is not that fine tuned because the extra pivot outs on an ASUS Proprietary OC Socket permit access to voltage lines for DDR4 Voltage, enabling greater overclocking than yous would normally be able to achieve. Now we didn't receive an ASUS X99 Deluxe engineering sample so Overclockers.ru was kind enough to send us an image of the box art. They claim a sixty% improvement in the CPU sector and 12.v% comeback (3000Mhz) for DDR4 RAM. At present at that place's something else I noticed here, ASUS'due south language is quite loose, these actress six pinouts might just be the half dozen sections where the excess contacts are. Which means that in that location could exist more or less than just six pins. Either way, you know the drill. Whatsoever the additional pin count is, add that to 2022 and yous go the existent name of the socket present in these special ASUS mobos.
#ASUS'southward Proprietary OC Socket is pretty impressive for an AIB to do, esp considering its non technically 2022. http://t.co/YiHOwH9akk
