Intel Pentium processor
Slot 1 motherboards were primarily designed for the Pentium II and early Pentium III processors. A Pentium Pro could be used with a special converter known as a "slotket." Later Pentium III processors could be retrofitted to work on Slot 1 boards with a similar slotket.
There are several "main" differences, that are important, depending on what context you are interested in them for. PowerPC processors are primarily manufactured by IBM and Freescale. Pentium processors are manufactured by Intel. PowerPC processors can operate in both little-endian and big-endian modes. Pentium processors (and compatibles) are little-endian only. PowerPC processors are used in some servers, game consoles, and in embedded kiosks. They were also used in Macs before 2005. Pentium (and compatible) processors are used in most desktop computers, the original Xbox, servers, and some embedded kiosks.
Pentium II Processors were slot-based, and did not use a socket like most processors did. Imagine a game boy cartrige-- The Pentium II had a connection band just like a game cartrige does.Socket (Slot) Types used by PII:Slot 1MMC-1MMC-2Mini-Cartridge
Contemporary computers mostly use either Intel or AMD processors. The Pentium brand of Intel processors is the most popular in the world.
A Pentium D in a computer is used to handle intensive games and multi tasking. It is powered by two core processors that offers exceptional functionality.
Socket 370 was used by the last of the Pentium IIIs, their corresponding low-end equivalent Celerons, and certain VIA processors.
"M" stands for Mobile, usually Pentium M processors are used in Laptops (like mine). Please see link for additional detail.
Modern processors and computer components use silicone. Older processors such as the 80486 and Pentium used ceramic on the original chips, and switched to silicone.
Slot 2 is used by Intel Pentium II Xeons and Intel Pentium III Xeons. These chips were most common in servers and industrial workstations.
LGA 775 processors are supported by LGS 775 sockets. Most, if not all, Intel processors are LGA 775, and almost no, if any, AMD processors are LGA 775. At www.newegg.com look up your processor and check the specifications to see what socket type it is.
No. The Pentium II was only available in a Slot 1 cartridge, with the exception of the Pentium II Overdrive, which was made as an upgrade to Socket 8 motherboards. Pentium II-based Celerons, however, were the first processors available for Socket 370, which was later used for Pentium IIIs.
All the Pentium systems were designed and built by the Intel Corporation
