Hello people; Will a Pentium 4 Processor with Hyper-Threading technology works on a motherboard that has an i845 chipset? and what are the benefits of a Pentium 4 Processor with Hyper-Threading Technology? Thanks
It's more than processor and chipset. BIOS must support the processor. You need to provide the exact processor model, and the model of the motherboard.
Processor: Intel Pentium 4 2.0A 2.0GHz Processor Mainboard Manufacturer: Samsung Electronics Co LTD (Korea) Mainboard Model: Unknown Chipset: Intel NetBurst i845 Chipset BIOS: Phoenix BIOS rev 6.0 00XB? (forgot the last part) 03/27/02 Can't get the whole info coz the processor is dead. Hope my gathered info suits the requirements
The i845 motherboard should be able to support the Pentium 4. However, you need to make sure the BIOS supports the model you intend to upgrade to. You will need to check with Samsung...
