LGA 1150,[1] also known as Socket H3, is a zero insertion force flip-chip land grid array (LGA) CPU socket designed by Intel for CPUs built on the Haswell microarchitecture. This socket is also used by the Haswell's successor, Broadwell microarchitecture.[2]

It is the successor of LGA 1155 and was itself succeeded by LGA 1151 in 2015.

Most motherboards with the LGA 1150 socket support varying video outputs (VGA, DVI or HDMI – depending on the model) and Intel Clear Video Technology.

Full support of Windows on LGA 1150 platform starts on Windows 7. Official Windows XP support is limited to selected CPUs, chipsets and only for embedded and industrial systems.

Intel's Platform Controller Hub (PCH) for the LGA 1150 CPUs is codenamed Lynx Point.[3] Intel Xeon processors for socket LGA 1150 use the Intel C222, C224, and C226 chipsets.[4]
