The cost would depend on the processor you wanted to purchase. An upgrade is probably possible (the Pentium Dual-Core is based on the Core Duo and Core 2 Duo processors) but you would need to make sure your motherboard supports the proper FSB speeds for your processor of choice.

That would require purchasing a new motherboard, processor, and power supply.


What should be the Ram speed to upgrade a 400 Mhz Intel celeron processor PC?

With this being a Pentium II, or Pentium III, you would be looking at a speed of either PC100, or PC133. Hope this helps be safe Cadishead Computers

There is no such thing as a Pentium 5. That would be a type of processor, except that Intel stopped naming them Pentium before the Pentium 5 came out.


Would an Intel Core 2 duo e4500 2.20 GHz be equivlent to Intel Pentium 4 processor?

No. The Intel Core 2 Duo is much faster than the older Pentium 4.


What is better an Intel Pentium III or an Intel Celeron?

Celeron doesn't refer to any particular processor series. Celerons were cost-reduced versions of their Pentium equivalents. The Celeron in question could be based on a Pentium 2, Pentium 3, Pentium 4, Pentium D, or Core 2 Duo. In which case the answers would be "Pentium 3, Usually Pentium 3, Celeron, Celeron, and Celeron", respectively.

What is the fastest processor upgrade for a Dell Optiplex 110?

Based on available information, the board supports a FSB speed of 133 MHz, and thus the fastest processor that can be installed would be an Intel Pentium III at 1.4 GHz.


Will Intel make a Pentium 5?

The Pentium brand has been relegated to low-cost / budget processors. Creating a processor called the "Pentium 5" would confuse consumers, who now expect a Pentium to be a cheaper processor, while the name would imply that it was a flagship successor to the Pentium 4.


Can you install a 800MHz CPU into a 120MHz Pentium 1?

No. There is no possible upgrade for a computer with a 120 MHz Pentium to an 800 MHz processor. You couldn't even replace the motherboard, as the case would not support newer motherboards (AT/Baby AT vs. ATX/microATX)


Can you use a program that requires an Intel Pentium iii or 4 processor if you have an Intel Pentium m?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentium_m lists the Pentium m as having comparable speed to the Pentium 4, so my initial guess would be that there wouldn't be a problem. The underlying libraries etc that a program links to are provided by the OS, not the chip, so I can't imagine there'd be a problem there.


How do you upgrade a Pentium 2 computer to Pentium 4?

You will at least need a new motherboard. The rest of the hardware in the Pentium II is probably so old that I would buy a new computer instead which has all new hardware.


Does Need for Speed Carbon work on an Intel Pentium III?

According to the system requirements, it requires a 1.7 GHz processor. The fastest Pentium III clocks in at 1.4 GHz, so it would technically not meet the requirements. However, the late-model Pentium IIIs were very close and sometimes even exceeded the Pentium 4s in performance, so it is possible that with a good graphics card, the game will run fine.
