BGA 1364 socket: CPUs, chipsets and cooler fit
BGA 1364 is the Intel soldered ball grid package for Broadwell-H laptop processors and Broadwell R all in one processors. It carries 1,364 contacts and solders directly to the mainboard. Intel launched Broadwell-H parts on this package in March 2015 at 47 W, with the R desktop parts following in May 2015 at 65 W.

Overview
The package exists for machines that need Iris Pro graphics without a socket. Four Broadwell cores with up to eight threads run 2.5 GHz to 3.3 GHz base with turbo to 3.4 GHz to 3.8 GHz. Six megabytes of Smart Cache on quad i7 parts and four megabytes on i5 parts sit beside Iris Pro Graphics 6200 at 300 MHz base with peaks from 1050 MHz to 1150 MHz plus 128 MB of eDRAM. Memory uses DDR3L-1600 and 1866 with LPDDR3 options over two channels to 32 GB. PCIe arrives as 3.0 with 16 lanes from the CPU.
Because the chip solders to the board there is no processor upgrade and no board swap. Laptop makers size cooling for 47 W sustained on H parts with 37 W idle points, while all in one makers design for 65 W sustained on R parts. Buyers choose the SKU once, with storage and sometimes memory as the only later changes.

Who BGA 1364 serves
BGA 1364 fits performance laptops from early 2015 and all in one desktops where Iris Pro graphics removes the need for a discrete card. The H line at 47 W suits 15 inch and larger notebooks for creation and play at 1080p. The R line at 65 W suits all in one boards with desktop class cooling and soldered CPUs.
Within the package the choice runs from the dual core Core i5-5350H for thin performance bodies through quad i5 R parts for all in one value to quad i7 H and R parts for heavy threads. Graphics stay Iris Pro Graphics 6200 across the batch, so buyers compare core count, clocks and TDP rather than GPU brand. The 128 MB eDRAM helps all SKUs equally.
Memory and PCIe
Memory support spans DDR3L-1600 and 1866 with LPDDR3 variants over two channels to 32 GB and up to 29.9 GB/s of bandwidth. Laptop boards use SODIMM slots or soldered LPDDR3 depending on thickness, while all in one boards often keep SODIMM slots for later expansion. Matched pairs lift Iris Pro graphics in games and creation apps. ECC is not offered on these consumer parts.
PCIe 3.0 with 16 lanes from the CPU covers graphics and fast storage plus board devices. Laptop designs typically wire eight lanes to a discrete GPU option or to NVMe storage with the rest for Wi-Fi and card readers. A Gen3 NVMe SSD matches the interface without waste. Cooling design decides sustained clocks more than headline turbo, so chassis reviews matter for H laptops.

Frequently asked questions
Can a BGA 1364 processor be replaced or upgraded?
No. The chip solders to the board with 1,364 balls. A faster machine means a new board or a new laptop or all in one. Buyers lock core count, graphics and memory at order time.
What memory does BGA 1364 use?
DDR3L-1600 and 1866 plus LPDDR3 over two channels to 32 GB. Dual channel pairs feed the cores and the Iris Pro Graphics 6200 with its 128 MB of eDRAM, so matched modules help graphics work.
Does BGA 1364 support PCIe 3.0?
Yes. The processors expose PCIe 3.0 with 16 lanes from the CPU for graphics and storage plus board I/O. Exact slot wiring follows the laptop or all in one design.
What is the difference between BGA 1364 and BGA 1515?
BGA 1364 carries 47 W Broadwell-H laptop parts and 65 W Broadwell R all in one parts with Iris Pro Graphics 6200 from 2015. BGA 1515 is a smaller 20 × 16.5 mm package for 4.5 W Core m tablets with HD Graphics 515.
