ABSTRACT:
A computer system is formed using a right angle processor connector assembly and a right angle add-on card connector. The right angle processor connector assembly includes a right angle processor connector and a complementary support member. Each of the right angle processor package and add-on card connectors includes an L-shaped body having an inner cavity defined a number of inner walls extending from one end to the other end. Each connector is mechanically attached to a motherboard, upside down and in a direction orthogonal to the motherboard. Each connector receives its constituent component (i.e. the processor package or the add-on card) through one end, with the constituent components and the motherboard occupying parallel planes. Each connector further includes a number of L-shaped pins disposed on the inner walls extending from one end through the other to electrically couple the constituent component to the motherboard. The processor connector further includes bracing features that cooperate with like features of the complementary support member to support the processor package.
