Basically, neither of them is faster. the speed depends on the CPU design. the faster the frequency, the faster the processing speed.:-D

β 11y agoLGA and PGA can be understood as opposites.β Land Grid arrayβ.
PGA Pin Grid Array is the socket that holds the CPU, there is also the LGA/ land grid array
LGA : Land Grid Array <== pins are in the socket, no pins are attached on the CPU, only pads. PGA: Pin Grid Array <== pins are attached on to the socket, the socket has some sort of "holes" that hold the processor
They are physically different. LGA (Land Grid Array) uses surface-mountedconnectors, PGA (Pin Grid Array) uses pin connectors, and SECC (Single Edge Contact Cartridge) uses a slot connector.
Because the pins on the bottom of the processor can be easily bent (assuming that this is a processor for a PGA (Pin Grid Array) or SPGA (Staggerd PGA) socket. It is worth noting though that a processor for a LGA (Land Grid Array) socket is not as susceptible to this as the there are lands or pads on the bottom of the processor instead of pins; the pins are in the socket. The book that asks this question assumes PGA. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Very true BUT you can bend the lands in an LGA socket, rendering the socket hence the motherboard useless!

Processors don't connect to a motherboard, there are installed in a socket. What determines if a processor is compatible is the type of processor... PGA(AMD most of the time) or LGA(Intel) and the ammount of pins that are on the motherboard/processor.

JFK serves different airlines than LGA. JFK also is bigger, and there are more flights coming in per hour than LGA, as far as that goes, it is nicer.
