This might be a nooby question (knowing me it is haha) but Does Sandy bridge have to do with the type of socket that a chip fits into? like fclga1155 or just lga1155 (I think that the fc in fclga1155 stands for flip chip)
P.S. I'm new to building computers
Wait. So this doesn't have anything to do with the beach and/or sandcastles?
Sandy Bridge was an X86 microarchitecture variant manufactured by intell. In simpler terms, a specific kind of CPU that was made by intell.
no it's a POWERPC blah blahblah
