The 'pins' are on the motherboard.

They used to be on the processors, now they're on the motherboard.

Damn that was a fast reply, thanks!

Alright then, just I've just always remembered them having pins sticking out.


Another fast reply, I was thinking they might be on motherboard, haven't taken it out of anti-static bag yet.
