at least the 2 people who bought a pc with socket 1851 can make good money from it in like 20 years
Bydlak_Bootsy
But 1851 will also support Panther Lake, which will come in 2026? Same as it has been for years with them, one socket for 2 gens.

Wait are intel dropping the socket next gen? I cant see anything about that online?

Buy our new CPU! (AND MOTHERBOARD)
– Intel every gen
Aspi_ar
I forgot about Intel since they released this whole “Ultra” thing. They will never go back to what they used to be, nothing will be the same.
Consistent_Cat3451
Meanwhile AM4 and AM5 surviving the test of time.
Kirxas
I could understand them doing this when they had a monopoly on CPUs, but now that they’re not even the first choice for one it’s so stupid
irn00b
Do people still expect more from them?
Common_Dot526
this is the reason AMD is the go to for upgradability
Ditching LGA 1851 so fast? I mean what is the problem with it?
Adept_Temporary8262
Wait what’s happening? I’m still on LGA 1400
Gilah_EnE
Remember there were times when one generation had two incompatible sockets for regular processors and HEDT-class ones? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Skastrik
It’s funny to see them keep doing this after they experienced and witnessed how AM4 just devastated their own business model. And knowing that AM5 will keep doing it.
OneNavan
At this point I’m not blaming Intel but the people who buy from them
If there is a better option like Ryzen why stick with a company that will drop you in 1 gen and half
Termiborg
Can someone give me a simple explanation to AMD’s terminology in understanding which CPU is which in performance (compare it with i3-5-7-9) and I will start shifting a global company’s local subsidiary towards AMD almoat immediately.
tekrangerk
Just another reason Intel hasn’t been in the heart of any of my rigs in years.
Then you have AMD who kicks out a final X3D CPU for AM4 to give them more life yet after nearly a decade, while AM5 rolls out next to it.

What are they trying to achieve with changing the sockets almost every year, other than people dumping their motherboards because they have an old socket?
gurugabrielpradipaka
My hunch is that AMD buried Intel very deep already, and no chance of resurrection. Hopefully I’m wrong because we need competition.
Meatslinger
Between this, poor gaming benchmarks from their newest gen (even *lower* than the one before it) and the chip degradation fiasco, I’m happier every day that I did an AMD upgrade on my core hardware earlier this year.
ZigZagZor
At this point , Intel should sell it’s x86 business AMD and just sell rebranded AMD chips
Buying Intel since Ryzen 7000 was released should trigger an intervention.

Anyone surprised?
LGA 1156 – Nehalem & Westmere
LGA 1155 – Sandy bridge & Ivy Bridge
LGA 1150 – Haswell & Broadwell
LGA 1151 – Skylake, Kaby Lake & Coffee Lake
LGA 1200 – Comet Lake & Rocket Lake
LGA 1700 – Alder Lake, Raptor Lake & Raptor Lake refresh
LGA 1854 Meteor Lake PS, Arrow Lake, (Arrow lake
Refresh?)
Intel 15+ years always had their socket for 2 or 3 gens, if 3 then one is clock refresh.
RobTheDude_OG
Aaaand this is why i stick to AM5 when it comes to future proofing
sachiel1462
At this point they should name their sockets LGA 2025, 2026 etc… It will be easier.
SuperSonicGamer29_YT
Because of this, I’m glad I switched from LGA 1155 to AM4.
michaelbelgium
Hasn’t it been always like this? Intel sockets only last 2 years, since AM4 intel hasn’t been a choice for longevity (and that’s been how many years now?)
Evantaur
And here I just slapped a new 5xxx series CPU to an ancient cheap ass motherboard bought from Moses eons ago and all it needed was a bios update.
