What else can I help you with?
What processors are equal to the Intel Pentium III?
The AMD K6-III and early Athlon processors are roughly equivalent in speed and performance. Via C7 processors, although released much later, are close in terms of performance to a Pentium III.
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.
When was Pentium III created?
Pentium III was created in 1999.
What socket do Pentium 4s use?
Pentium 4s were available in Socket 423, Socket 478, and LGA 775.
What does an Intel Pentium III Xeon do does it replace an Intel Pentium III?
No. It is a higher-end version of the same processor, with a larger amount of L2 cache. It cannot be used as a replacement, since they use different slot / socket types.
What is the difference between an Intel Pentium II and an Intel Pentium III?
The Intel Pentium II was released in a Slot 1 package, while the Pentium Pro used socket 8. Adapters were available to use Pentium Pros in Slot 1 motherboards, and a version of the Pentium II was released for Socket 8.The Intel Pentium II includes MMX instructions, while the Pentium Pro does not.The Intel Pentium II has improved performance in 16-bit applications. 32-bit applications were not affected quite as much.
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 difference between a Pentium R and Pentium III processor?
There is no "Pentium R" processor. Knowing this, the biggest difference is that the Pentium III exists and the other does not.
What type of RAM is in an Intel Pentium III?
The L1 cache in the Pentium III is SRAM.
Can you change the processor in an IBM Thinkpad A30 from an Intel Pentium III to an Intel Pentium 4?
No, the Pentium 3 and Pentium 4 are not only samples of 2 completely different architectures, but also use a different socket so a change between the 2 on the same motherboard is impossible.
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.
When was the Intel Pentium III released?
The Intel Pentium III was released on February 26, 1999.
