Have a question

[prx984]

Ok, I have a fairly simple question. I have a laptop with a Pentium 4 chip in it. I do suppose that it will be a mobile Pentium 4. Anyway, I found out some info about the chip, the model number (I assume) is "uFCPGA478"

It's a Pentium 4 at 2.4ghz with a 512Kb L2 cache and a 400Mhz FSB.

Now, what I was wondering is, what is the socket? I'm assuming its a Socket 478, which makes sense because of the model number, and the fact that it's very similar (to what I remember) to the 2.0GHz P4 I had given to a friend earlier.

So, I'd just like some info because I'm planning on giving it to the same person as the other chip.

the socket is the mobile socket, mobile 478 i guess if you want to go that far. you would have to get a mobile 478 processor to replace it

I'm not really planning on replacing the chip, I was just wondering if theres a possibility that the chip would work in a desktop motherboard. The computer it came from is poached anyhow.

Heres the computer it came from. http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Products/...=59&LanID=9
