Re: [CentOS] Pentium M in desktop system.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I was just  booting up my system and it says Mobile Pentium 4 2.8 Ghz...

Is that different then a Pentium M processor..Im thinking if it would say "Pentium M....etc" if it was a Pentium M model .because I know they made pentium 4 's for laptops that were the same as desktop p4's..

So i was just thinking that if its the p4 desktop type ..then its even better for me...

Yeah, windows, but I do run a myth system. And actually the pentium M i have has 2mb cache...no i didnt bend pins , because i triple checked it before putting in my desktop.

You were able to fit the CPU, without bending pins - obviously, it's
running. I'd say - no problem. But don't just look at the CPU speed as a
performance indicator. Chances are that your original CPU had a higher
cache, which will dramatically improve performance.
On another note: your disk was badly fragmented... hmm... are perhaps a
windows user?

:o)

I have a Gigabyte 8S661FXMP motherboard. It had a P4 2.4Ghz processor in it.

I have a laptop which cant be fixed and has a Pentium 4 M 2.8Ghz.

I put the Pentium M in my desktop and it boots fine and runs fine, yet I have only been running it for about 30 minutes and shut it down.

I have now run it for a complete 2 days without lock ups or anything.
I have just been letting it idle, although I did do a defrag of a 120Gig hard drive which the hard drive was thoroughly fragged. So that was the first intensive thing done to my desktop with the pentium M processor.

I runs at a cool 24 degress C.

I did read that some laptops were socket 479 but i double checked my laptop and it is definitely socket 478. Both my desktop and laptop are socket 478.

When I boot my system up, it does tell me that its a Mobile processor.

What kinda issues would I need to look for as far as capatibility issues.

I kinda took the situation as, it boots up and runs so it should be fine.
