Pentium 4 packages use what 2 sockets?

Pentium 4 sockets were sockets numbers Socket 423 for early Pentium 4's. Then socket 478 for Pentium 4, Pentium 4 Extreme Edition and Celeron and socket T (LGA 775) for Pentium 4, Pentium D dual core, Celeron D and Pentium Extreme Edition.


What is the main function of a Socket 478 Connector?

The Socket 478 connector is used for Intel Pentium 4 processors and their Celeron equivalents.


Can you install a Intel Celeron 700 processor in a socket 7 motherboard?

No. The pinout differences between a Socket 7 and a Socket 370 processor are too great to adapt the Celeron to the older board. If your board is Super Socket 7 capable, you can run an AMD K6-III at 500 MHz (and it can sometimes be overclocked to 550 MHz).


What are the functions of a CPU slot?

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.

What is Socket 478?

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.


When was the Intel Celeron 900 first released?

The Intel Celeron 900 was first released and used in computers in April 1998. There have been various versions of the Celeron for computer and for laptop use.


Will a processor chip from a PGA479M socket fit in a PGA478M socket?

Yes, dependent on CPU...I have just put a Core2Duo from a PGA478m into a PGA479m board, and the Celeron that was in the 479 into the 478. Both laptops run fine.


Which is better Celeron processor or Atom processor?

A Celeron processor. Some Celeron processors are somewhat powerful, however Atom processors are slower, intended for basic use in ultra-mobile machines such as netbooks.


Can you use an Intel laptop processor in a desktop?

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.


When was Celeron created?

Celeron was created in 1998.
