AMD Athlon XP 3200+ 2.2GHz
A 462Chipset indicates that the CPU will fit into socket 462. So if you have a motherboard with a 462 Chipset and you want to upgrade or change your CPU you have to ensure it will fit into socket 462.
Socket A is also known as Socket 462. This CPU socket is used for AMD processors, manufactured by Athlon Thunderbird.
Dual cpu socket motherboards are for workstations/servers and won't fit in you typical case. Yes it boosts the performance.
Yes, workstations and servers have 2 slot motherboards.
This runs a Athlon XP 2.0Ghz at stock. Therefore it is a Socket 462 \ A motherboard.hope this helpsbe safe
CPUs are not normally soldered to motherboards. They plug into a socket that's soldered to the board.
No. They both have totally different pin sizes and amount of pins. Socket AM2 has a lot more pins, socket a has 462 pins.
The best way to find suitable processors for motherboards is to check the specs on your motherboard. Note that each mothermoard has an appropriate CPU socket. For example, the computer site http://www.allpcdeals.com/servlet/the-Motherboard-%26-CPUs/Categories lists their motherboards by socket, so you can look up the motherboard you have, and note it's socket, and then purchase the processor that fits. The most popular is the CPU socket 478 and LGA 775 (the ladder now becoming the more popular).
CPU slot(s) and/or socket(s)The type of CPU slot or socket determines which processors the motherboard can use. The most popular CPU connectors are Socket 370 (late-model Intel Pentium III and Celeron processors), Socket A (AMD Athlon and Duron), Socket 478 (current Celeron and Pentium 4), Socket 423 (old-style Pentium 4), Slot 1 (old-style Pentium II/III and Celeron), Slot A (older-style Athlon), and the obsolete Socket 7 (Intel Pentium and AMD K6-* processors). Some motherboards have two or more CPU connectors, allowing them to support multiple processors. A few motherboards have both Slot 1 and Socket 370 connectors, allowing them to support either type of CPU (but not both at once).There are three versions of Socket 370, which differ in pinouts and which processors they support. Early Socket 370/PPGA motherboards support only older Mendocino-core Celeron processors. Later Socket 370/FC-PGA motherboards support Coppermine-core Pentium III FC-PGA processors and Coppermine128-core Celeron FC-PGA processors. The final Socket 370 motherboards, which Intel refers to as "Universal" models, support any Socket 370 processor, including Tualatin-core Pentium III and Celeron processors. Although Socket 370 is now obsolescent, tens of millions of Socket 370 systems remain in use. When you upgrade such a system it is important to check the documentation to determine which Socket 370 variant that system uses.
It is a CPU, designed for use in socket 7 motherboards. It was designed to be competition to the Intel pentuim/pentuim MMX range of CPUs.
The CPU socket does not affect computer upgrading as much as one might think. There are some motherboards that can have a different CPU installed, resulting in increased performance. Many motherboards, however, are designed with a specific CPU in mind, and it is better, and cheaper in the long run, to replace the motherboard or even the entire system unit. (You can buy a whole new system for less than the price of replacing a motherboard, memory, and hard drives.)
Some Cpu's that use Socket A are Athlon Xp, Athlon Mp, Athlon Model 4 AMD's Athlons and Duron use Socket A, also known as Socket 462. The AMD Athlon and the AMD Duron use a 426-pin socket called Socket A. The Athlon Thunderbird
