Socket 5 was created for the second generation of Intel Pentium processors operating at speeds from 75 to 133 MHz as well as certain Pentium OverDrive processors. Pentium MMX processors are not compatible with Socket 5. Consisting of 320 pins,Core Voltage 3.3V ,this was the first socket to use a staggered pin grid array, or SPGA. This design allowed the chip's pins to be spaced closer together. Socket 5 was replaced by Socket 7.
