A land grid array (LGA) connector assembly (1) includes a base (11), a stiffener (13) mounted to the base, and a lever (12) and a metal clip (14) pivotally mounted to two opposite ends of the base and engaging with each other. The base has a forewall (116). The stiffener includes two flanges (132) covering two opposite lateral sides of the base. The ends of the flanges and the forewall of the base cooperatively define a channel. Each flange defines a pivot bore (1321) at an end of the channel. The lever is received in the channel, with pivoting in the pivot bores. Thus, when the lever are rotated to firmly attach a CPU in the LGA connector assembly, the base can withstand forces from the clip without any deformation and warpage, and the lever is reliably retained in the channel with minimal risk of breaking out from the channel.
