Abstract

Embodiments herein may include apparatuses, systems, and processes related to a socket with a first side to receive a package substrate and a second side coupled with a printed circuit board (PCB), which may be a mother board, where the socket has a cavity into which a thermal conductor is inserted to conduct heat from the package substrate to the PCB. In embodiments, the PCB may contain thermal vias to conduct heat from one side of the PCB to the other side. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
