LGA 2066, also called Socket R4, is a CPU socket by Intel that debuted with Skylake-X and Kaby Lake-X processors in June 2017. ^[1] It replaces Intel's LGA 2011-3 (R3) in the performance, high-end desktop and Workstation platforms (based on the X299 "Basin Falls" and C422 chipsets), while LGA 3647 (Socket P) replaces LGA 2011-3 (R3) in the server platforms based on Skylake-SP (Xeon "Purley"). It and LGA 1151 are the last Intel sockets to officially support Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 8, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 and the earliest Intel sockets to officially support all versions of Windows 11.

Compatible processors

High-End Desktop (HEDT)

All of these CPUs require the Intel X299 chipset to work. So, the C422 chipset is strictly limited to work with workstation processors only.

Kaby Lake-X

Kaby Lake-X processors were discontinued in May 2018. Starting October 2019, BIOS updates for most of the X299-based motherboards removed support for Kaby Lake-X processors. ^[2]

Workstation

Take note that certain types of Xeon processors will not work on this socket, like Skylake-P. There are four OEM variants that can be found in Apple Mac Pro: W-2140B and W-2150B (lower freq/TDP than their W-21x5 counterparts), W-2170B and W-2191B lack Trusted_Execution_Technology (TXT) in comparison.
