Lga1700 Broken Pin

[SKBARON]

Just my 2 cents: this looks totally fixable. I had a h85 motherboard with a broken pin which was responsible for one memory slot. I found some steel whiring, of comparable thickness to the pins, threaded it into the socket and cut to lenght, tried to position it in a way that it was oriented like the other pins. Then i gently placed the CPU into the socket and locked it into place. The pc booted to problems and it was detecting all the ram. The only thing off though was that it would not be stable at default frequency ( in my case it was ddr3 1600), so i had to lower it to 1333. Otherwise it works nicely.

The pins on LGA1700 are tiny.

I have left it as it is. Run some benchmarks (blender included), which gave me below average results (all setting @ default), but it seems to work ok despite the missing pin.
I was wondering though about the m2 slots. Are there any differences nowdays between the cpu (m.2_cpu slot) and the two chipset based (even within those two slots) m2q_sb and m2p_sb slots?
I have installed a bequite mc1 pro cooler and i am forced to have my os drive (980 pro) at the third and last slot. Could this slop share lanes with any of the pci-e slots?

Mine has one M2_1 CPU slot and 3 chipset M2_2/3/4 slots. I don't think there is any difference really imo.

It might be placebo but before I install the 980 pro I had it in the second slot, and after the heatsink i was forced to plug it at the third. It has a slightly lower benchmarks but it might be random.

Hi,
My apex m.2 dimm cards uses pch/ cpu and it's just fine
CPU's are a lot better now days they do physX better than gpu's

I was wondering if the m2 slots lanes are shared with any of the pcie lanes (z690 chipset)

I'm not sure about shared PCIe but my no.4 is sata/NVME selectable

Hi,
Online manual come in handy with these sort of questions.
But my guess would be yes there are only so many pci-e lanes.

It's not hedt

To be honest it seems that it does not. It is not clear on 12th gen intels

Hi,
Yeah I've benchmarked the hell out of it too

I looked for the socket image but no luck.

I've done away with m.2 use they don't really make that big of a difference from sata except run hot and I hate hot spots plus I dual boot way to much with linux so I like removing any windows ssd's when doing so to keep the garbage linux grub off them.

Just a note I dual boot Windows and Linux because occasionally I had to run Linux. So what I did was I instaledl the first boot drive (Windows) into the first m2_1 slot. After the installation is done, I removed m1 and install second drive (Linux) into m2_2. After the Linux installation is done, I can now put the m2_1 (Windows) back in and control which to boot by getting into the UEFI Boot order. No conflict and no need to disconnect any drive afterwards.

Hi,
Windows updating might end up borking linux booting by installing a boot loader on the second m.2.

I keep linux and windows far away from each other sata ssd's are great plus easy swap ssd enclosures lol

Well I forget how many pci-e lanes this platform has 20 ?

What about a jeweler or watch repair shop.

Hi,
Here it is one on the left edge almost in the middle
Snapped like a twig

Not repairable any more it has been cut.

From Tom's Hardware .....Alder Lake supports up to 16 lanes of PCIe 5.0 (technically for storage and graphics only, no networking devices) and an additional four lanes of PCIe 4.0 from the chip for M.2 storage. Intel has also added 12 lanes of PCIe 4.0 that hang off the chipset (these are that interest us in my case).
I still can not understand if the wifi card specifically I have on Pci-e slot 4 shares its lanes with my m.2. drive

 

[NnikitosS]

Is there a LGA1700 pin map available?
I have a missing pin and i want to know what should i expect.
At the moment It seems that i have lost the m2_cpu connector

HI, The pin map for this socket was found on this website. pin map LGA 1700

Sorry I don't have a constructive contribution, but it might make ya feel better:

I too have had 1 or 2 LGA boards seemingly bend pins entirely on their own:
As if an unforseen force or STALKER-like anomaly just appeared under the installed CPU.

IIRC, one was an LGA775 board, the other LGA1155.
I think I fixed the 775 (I pulled the diamonds out of my boxers afterwards)

The ITX Z77 1155 board though... Nope.
It wasn't always in my possession, and it had some quirks w/ RAM already (from me stupidly mounting down a backplate onto an SMD component). But it just 'up and died' one day outta the blue. Pulled CPU to see bent pin(s), and also found a pin in the PCIe slot that doubled-over on itself. (Only time I've ever seen that kinda failure. It's kinda hard to do that, even purposefully)
