A 'socket' on the motherboard is where you drop in the actual CPU.

With some motherboards offering 4 sockets, and CPUs with 10 cores and 
hyper-threading making 20 effective cores, how do you count them?

RedHat now counts 'sockets', be that might mean 4 cores, or 80.  But is 
seems to me that the current licensing assumes 80. :)

Good Luck!
