|
|
I would like to upgrade my Dell Inspiron 8000 from a pentium 3 1ghz processor to a greater processor such as a 1.6 or a 2.0. Dell said "the mother board is not upgradable" although the processor is removable and not 'built in'.
Can I go to a pentium 4 1ghz or what is the best I can hope for and is "overclocking" an option to consider? |

The Inspiron 8000 uses a coppermine P3 CPU.
The fastest made was 1GHz
The sockets changed after this.
So you are best off getting a new laptop.
And if you do so I will give you $25 for your old CPU (as I have a 900) _________________ New for 2025! The CPU Shack has a co-processor!

the fastest pentium3 coppermine is the 1133 (8.5x133) and the 1100 (11x100) _________________ PSP Slim 3.71 M33-4  |

This is a notebook. I think CPUShack mean 1 GHz was last model of Pentium III coppermine mobile in mPGA2 package. _________________ Visit ABC CPU - Virtual CPU Museum. |
