Socket
939 pin
AMD Only.
Socket 939. Used by AMD's processors including Athlon,  Athlon 64 X2, Athlon.
FC-PGA2  Pentium IV Intel Only. FC-PGA2 packages are similar to the FC-PGA package type, except these processors also have an Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS) that helps heatsink dissipation to a properly attached fan heatsink. The Package is used for the Pentium 4 processor (478 pins).
OOI Package Type 423 Intel Only. OOI is short for OLGA. OLGA stands for Organic Land Grid Array. The OOI then has an Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS) that helps heatsink dissipation to a properly attached fan heatsink. The OOI is used by the Pentium 4 processor, which has 423 pins.
PGA Package Type
603/4
Intel Only. Pin Grid Array 603/4. To improve thermal conductivity, the PGA has an Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS) that helps heatsink dissipation to a properly attached fan heatsink. The PGA package is used by the Intel Xeon™ processor, which has 603/4 pins
FC-PGA2  Pentium III Intel Only. FC-PGA2 packages are similar to the FC-PGA package type, except these processors also have an Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS) that helps heatsink dissipation to a properly attached fan heatsink. The FC-PGA2 package is used in Pentium III and Celeron processor (370 pins)
