Apparently Intel Design and Development tools use the 'LGA1160' socket, now I'm not going to count those pins but still. Is this some outdated site, is Fuad stumbling again?
Who cares? The socket is 1160 pins.If they only use 1156 or 666 who gives a f**k ? It's not like it matters for you.
If anything it will allow future revisions on power and data delivery to be activated without changing the socket.
