Yes it seems that the older p4 mother boards came with the SDRAM slot. But the newer ones don't seem to come with the SDRAM slot, they have ddr slots now.
Depending on its age, either SDR SDRAM, DDR, or DDR2 RAM.
No, you cannot.
A Pentium 4 processor, and a motherboard that supports it.
Not necessarily. There have been three different sockets used for Pentium 4 processors (Socket 423, Socket 478, and LGA775). They are not interchangeable without special adapters. Even when pin-compatible, motherboard updates may be necessary for the processors to actually work.
socket l775 its compatible with it
All Pentium 4 processors support SSE2.
Yes.
Yes, depending on the motherboard. Most Pentium 4 chipsets support up to 4 GB of RAM, although the motherboard may not physically support enough RAM modules.
yes it is
That would require purchasing a new motherboard, processor, and power supply.
Socket A.
This would all depend on your actual motherboard. Some boards do take a Pentium 3 chip. If you know the model of your board, then check the manufacturers website, for details of the maximum mhz allowed for it. If you don't know the model number, then go to Google, and download a program called belarc advisor. Once installed, this will give you the in's and out#s of your PC. All hardware, and software installed. If you find the board does take a Pentium 3 CPU, then you will need to purchase a 'slotty'. Basically this is a piece of hardware, that turns the black CPU, into a normal CPU. It slots inside the same place as the original CPU. With the added advantage of a heatsink and fan, which can be plugged onto the board. Hope this helps be safe
