Will a Socket 478 Pentium 4 fit in an LGA775 socket?


No. The pinout is totally different. Technically, LGA775 is not even a socket. The LGA775 actually has the pins sticking UP, and the processor is flat.

Will an LGA775 Pentium 4 work in an LGA775 socket?


Yes. However, support for Pentium 4s was discontinued in the P35 and later chipsets.

Are there adapters to fit a Socket 478 Pentium 4 into an LGA775 socket?


Yes. These are expensive, though, making it much more worthwhile to purchase an LGA775 P4 in the first place.

Can you upgrade from an Intel Pentium 4 to an Intel Pentium Dual-Core?

The CPU can be upgraded only if your motherboard/chipset and BIOS support it. Socket 478 motherboards cannot support a Dual-Core, as they use a different socket. If you have an LGA775 motherboard, it may work, but chipsets before 945 are not officially supported and may fail to function properly.


If a CPU cooler says lga775 on it but says it's designed for Pentium ds will it still work on Pentium 4s?

If you have an older Socket 478 Pentium 4, the cooler will not fit properly. If you have one of the later LGA775 P4s, it should work, as Pentium Ds actually output more heat than a Pentium 4. But a cooler only rated for, say, a Core 2 Duo, without the Pentium 4 being taken into account, would not work, since Core 2s do not generate as much heat under full load.


What is an lga775 and how does it work?

The LGA 775, or Socket T, is an Intel CPU socket for the desktop. Its job is to provide mechanical and electrical connections between the microprocessor and the PCB. LGA stands for Land Grid Array.


Are Pentium 4 class CPU interchangeable on the same motherboard?

Not necessarily. There have been three different sockets used for Pentium 4 processors (Socket 423, Socket 478, and LGA775). They are not interchangeable without special adapters. Even when pin-compatible, motherboard updates may be necessary for the processors to actually work.


Will a Intel core i7 work on my PC Specs atm. Graphics card - Nvidia GTX 260 Ram - 4GB 64 bit system motherboard - Asus P5Q PRO Turbo PSU - 450 or 650?

No! The Asus P5Q PRO Turbo motherboard has the Intel LGA775 processor socket, which supports the Intel Core 2, Cerleron Dual-core, and Pentium Dual-core processor families. Your FSB (Front Side Bus) speed is also too slow for the Core I7 CPU.


Will a game that requires an Intel Pentium 4 processor work on an Intel Core 2 Quad processor?

Yes.


Will an Intel Pentium work in a laptop computer?

Yes they will work in a laptop but I like the AMD better.


What are the Intel Pentium M processors meant for?

The intel pentium M processor is meant to be an mobile microprocessor. It was designed specifically to work with laptops and notebooks. However, several companies have integrated them into their motherboards.


Have a compaq evo n620c notebook with Pentium m 1600 mhz processor can you upgrade to a Intel Pentium m processor 1.70 ghz sl6n5?

Yes, the 1.7 with 2mb L2 cache will work great, but it means a complete disassembly of the laptop in order to get at the cpu socket.


Will the sims 3 work on my Intel Pentium dual-core 2.16GHz Laptop?

yes it will i have it!


Is a Pentium motherboard compatible with an i3?

A Pentium motherboard is not inherently compatible with an Intel i3 processor because compatibility depends on the specific motherboard model and its chipset. Pentium and i3 processors may use different socket types, so it's essential to check the motherboard’s specifications to determine if it supports the i3. If the socket type and chipset are compatible, then it may work; otherwise, you would need a different motherboard for the i3.


If a game's minimum requirement is an Intel Pentium 4 3.0 GHz and you have an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.60 GHz will it work?

Yes.
