In some cases, yes. If the BIOS of the motherboard has the proper microcode updates to control the processor, and the FSB (front side bus) is at a high enough rate, you can install a Pentium III processor on the older board.
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.
The Dell Precision 410 workstation was equipped with either a Pentium II or a Pentium III processor, at a speed between 350 and 700 MHz.
Possibly. "Celeron" doesn't refer to any particular processor. They are cost-reduced versions of the Intel Pentium II, Pentium III, Pentium 4, Pentium M, and Core 2 Duo. Assuming that your Celeron is based on a processor that is faster than the Pentium III, you shouldn't have any problems. If yours is based on the Pentium III, check the clock speed. A 1.2 GHz Celeron, for instance, is probably fast enough for a game that requires a 1 GHz Pentium III.Other factors, such as the graphics card of your system, may also be important.
Pentium II
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.
socket 9
Slot 1.
With this being a Pentium II, or Pentium III, you would be looking at a speed of either PC100, or PC133. Hope this helps be safe Cadishead Computers
The fastest "classic" Pentium is clocked at 200 Mhz. The fastest Pentium with MMX extension is clocked at 300 Mhz. The fastest Pentium II is clocked at 400 Mhz. The fastest Pentium III is clocked at 1.4 Ghz. The fastest Pentium 4 is clocked at 3.8 Ghz. The fastest Pentium D is clocked at 3.7 Ghz. The fastest Pentium M is clocked at 2.26 Ghz. The fastest Pentium Dual-Core is clocked at 2.5 Ghz.
Pentium II
That would require purchasing a new motherboard, processor, and power supply.
