I checked the power of my processor with dxdiag, and it said it was 690mhz... but then i checked it by going to properties in My Computer, and it says i have 697mhz, which should i believe?
Im guessing this is an old processor / computer right? Well there isn't much difference, for the sake of it go for the smaller.
either could be right, I suspect its 700Mhz with some kind of power saving such as intel speedstep. If you want to know the real speed, google and download 'truespeed'.
hahaha.. i just laugh.. man you should buy a new processor like intel core 2 duo, intel core 2 quad, i7, dual core. that's a very dumpy processor, like my old pc 501 mhz
yeah, no all processor used with all of the mother board like this : i7 can't be used on Palit motherboard ** or : core 2 duo can't be used on old motherboard you must buy new pc!! sorry about that
Edit your post instead of double posting so that we don't need to see that ugly Post Merge notification.
I didn't buy mine in the first place... it was just given to me... my brother was the one who gave it to me, he said i would not be able to upgrade to a higher processor unless I bought a new mother board.
that is often the case. However assuming I am correct that you have a PIII/celeron 700, then not only would you need a new motherboard, but also new ram, possibly a new graphics card and possibly a new power supply.
Is that even possible? Or do you mean build a new PC? That makes sense. But yeah, personally i would recommend a new computer, that one is a little out dated
Yeah, I have a PIII Celeron, and he said I would have to get all of that too... Although I am thinking about upgrading to a better one eventually, this one does what I really need it to at the moment. Just for doing schoolwork, saving roms for various systems, internet, music... usual stuff
Yes it is possible, not easy but possible. Not a high-end processor like Intel. That's for large teams. But the person next to me has designed a microblaze compatible processor in six months (master graduation project) which is going to be used by Philips. If you're looking for examples of microprocessors (and things to attach to this), check out opencores.org.
