Socket 370 Intel Processors Mechanical Load Limits

Most Intel Socket 370 processors (Pentium III and Celeron) have the following mechanical maximum load limits which should not be exceeded during heat sink assembly, shipping conditions, or standard use. Load above those limits will crack the processor die and make it unusable.

Location Dynamic Static
Die Surface 890 N (200 lbf) 222 N (50 lbf)
Die Edge 667 N (100 lbf) 53 N (12 lbf)

Famous quotes containing the words processors, mechanical, load and/or limits:

    “The information links are like nerves that pervade and help to animate the human organism. The sensors and monitors are analogous to the human senses that put us in touch with the world. Data bases correspond to memory; the information processors perform the function of human reasoning and comprehension. Once the postmodern infrastructure is reasonably integrated, it will greatly exceed human intelligence in reach, acuity, capacity, and precision.”
    —Albert Borgman, U.S. educator, author. Crossing the Postmodern Divide, ch. 4, University of Chicago Press (1992)

    “There is only one evil, to deny life
    As Rome denied Etruria
    And mechanical America Montezuma still.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “‘Tis all men’s office to speak patience
    To those that wring under the load of sorrow,
    But no man’s virtue nor sufficiency
    To be so moral when he shall endure
    The like himself.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Mathematics alone make us feel the limits of our intelligence. For we can always suppose in the case of an experiment that it is inexplicable because we don’t happen to have all the data. In mathematics we have all the data ... and yet we don’t understand. We always come back to the contemplation of our human wretchedness. What force is in relation to our will, the impenetrable opacity of mathematics is in relation to our intelligence.”
    —Simone Weil (1909–1943)
