The Pentium 1 is known for the FDIV bug, which was a hardware-level error causing incorrect answers when certain mathematical operations were called. Intel was forced to make a massive recall of all affected processors.

Can a Gibayte GA-6BXC motherboard support an Intel Pentium III processor?

Yes. The GA-6BXC can support any Slot 1 Intel Pentium II or Pentium III processor. For the faster Pentium IIIs, you will need to purchase a "slotket" to convert a Socket 370 processor to the Slot 1 interface.


What slot does the Intel Pentium II processor go into?

Slot 1.


Could a PC with an Intel Celeron run a game that requires an Intel Pentium III?

Possibly. "Celeron" doesn't refer to any particular processor. They are cost-reduced versions of the Intel Pentium II, Pentium III, Pentium 4, Pentium M, and Core 2 Duo. Assuming that your Celeron is based on a processor that is faster than the Pentium III, you shouldn't have any problems. If yours is based on the Pentium III, check the clock speed. A 1.2 GHz Celeron, for instance, is probably fast enough for a game that requires a 1 GHz Pentium III.Other factors, such as the graphics card of your system, may also be important.


Which processor is in server computer?

Depends on what type of server, it most earlier servers (Pentium 2/3 days) The most common Slot 1/2 Processor used was the XEON by Intel. It covered Pentium 2 and Pentium 3 servers, the XEON Processor wasn't like a normal PC version, it featured a larger Cache which would help the processor process more and at a faster rate.


How many pin in Intel Pentium 1?

The Socket 4 Pentium processor from the early 1990's had 273 pins the socket 5 had 320.


Difference 8085 and Pentium IV processor?

4004 8008 8086 and series go on 80286 80386 80486 Pentium 1 Pentium 2 Pentium 3 Pentium 4 Dual core Core 2 duo Core 2 Quad Upto CoreI7 So basically in a long time period Pentium 4 is an improvement on 8085 and basically today micro code of all these processor is of 8085


What would be considered a major design difference between Pentium 1 and Pentium 2 processors?

On the Pentium II, the L2 cache is integrated into the processor packaging, rather than on the motherboard. This allows the L2 to be accessed much faster, and improving overall performance.


Can you run axis and allies on a computer with 1 and a fourth gb of ram and integrated graphics and a 1.8ghz Pentium 4 processor?

Yes.

What is the highest version of Windows you can get for an Intel Pentium III?

Windows 7 32-bit is the highest version compatible with the Pentium III processor. : the official requirement about processor is "a x86 CPU clocked at 1 Ghz or above" and some models of Pentium III meet that technical specification. Please note that only the 32-bit version of Windows 7 can run on Pentium III. Moreover, it is recommended to have at least 1 GB of RAM for Windows 7 32-bit, which is a huge amount for a computer of this era.


Are there different types of computer processors If so how many and what are their names and brand names?

There are onlu TWO types of processors. These are: 1. Intel 2. AMD And of course there are some different processors that do different things, even though they are the same brand name. A Macintosh processor is different from a Windows processor, because the Macintosh processor (my opinion) is more powerful. There are also different processors for different for different types of technology. A PDA would have 64-bit processor, but they are under Intel. The United States is the only country that makes processors, both Intel and AMD. The specific types of processors are: Intel: (These are the current ones that most people have) 1. Pentium Pro 2. Pentium II 3. Celeron (Pentium Based But More Powerful) 4. Pentium II Xeon 5. Pentium III 6. Pentium II and III Xeon 7. Celeron (New Generation, Pentium III Based) 8. Pentium 4 (Most common) 9. Pentium M 10. Intel Core 11. Dual Core Xeon LV 12. Intel Pentium Dual Core 13. Intel Core 2 14. Pentium Duo 15. Pentium Dual Core 16. Core 2 Quad 16. (Newest) Intel Pentuim 2 Dual Core Processor Amd: (The Current One's) 1. AMD Athlon 2. AMD Athlon 64 3. AMD Athlon X2 4. AMD Athlon Xp 5. AMD Duron 6. AMD Sempron 7. AMD Turion 8. AMD Opteron 9. AMD Phenom 1. The PowerPC processor (formerly used in some MacIntosh computers) is used in the Xbox 360, the Wii, and the PlayStation 3. The most popular 32 bit processor (in terms of units sold) is the ARM processor.


What is the maximum speed of an Intel Pentium III processor?

Some motherboards will have the ability to overclock the FSB (Front Side Bus) and make the processor run faster. Many do not, however, and thus the Pentium III can only be run at it's rated speed.
