Yes, there are some "no name" laptop brands that use desktop CPU-s onto their laptop motherboards. I have a laptop of "Vobis" manufacturer and I'm using Pentium 4 , 2.4 GHz, 533 MHz FSB desktop CPU in that machine.
Socket 478 was the only widespread name for this processor socket.
The sockets are different, so by default, you cannot use them in a desktop. There are adapters for Pentium M and Celeron M chips to be used in Socket 478 motherboards. You can purchase motherboards specifically made to support mobile processors as well.
Socket 478 is a processor socket used by certain versions of the Intel Pentium 4 and their Celeron counterparts. It consists of 478 contacts (pin holes) in a FC-PGA configuration. The Socket 478 format was replaced by the Socket 775 format.
If your computer is a Pentium 4 2.4 Ghz or later it's a socket 478.
Correct.
Socket 478.
Socket 478
3.0 GHz Pentium 4s were manufactured for both Socket 478 and LGA775.
The Intel Celeron D processor has 478 pins. It uses the Socket 478 interface, which was commonly found in early 2000s desktop systems. This pin configuration is specific to the Celeron D series, which was designed for budget-conscious users.
That depends upon the socket type the processor was made for. The Pentium 4 was released in three socket types: # Socket 423 (423 Pins) # Socket 478 (478 Pins) # LGA775 (775 Contacts) Note: in the case of the LGA775 the processor does not have pins. Instead it has contacts, while the socket actually has pins that connect to the contacts on the processor.
Depends on what socket you get. Each may be different. E.G: LGA 771 LGA 775 LGA 1366 Socket 478 Socket 939 Socket AM2 Socket AM2+ Socket AM3
Yes, Socket 423 is indeed an Intel processor type. It was introduced in 2000 to support the Pentium 4 processors, specifically the early models. This socket was part of Intel's transition to the NetBurst microarchitecture and was succeeded by Socket 478, which supported later Pentium 4 variants.
