Zusammenfassung:	An IC chip package and related method are disclosed. The IC chip package may include a printed circuit board (PCB) coupled to a chip carrier by a land grid array (LGA) connector; a metal stiffener including at least one force-adjustable member contacting an underside of the PCB; and at least two couplers for coupling the metal stiffener to a lid or a heat sink, with the PCB, the chip carrier and the LGA connector therebetween. The force-adjustable member reduces the required assembly forces and accommodates natural and non-systematic out-of flatness tolerances of the PCB and the chip carrier.
