What is....

[Son1990]

I just tore apart an old Laptop for a processor when I realized that I didnt know its socket type. Is there anyway to find out what socket size it is? Also, would I be able to buy a mobo and turn it into a desktop? I can hardley make out what it says on it anymore but I can read that its an Intel Pentium 4, with 2 somin of mhz and then under that it has SL689 but im not positve about the numbers. I know it says "Phillipiens" tho. Please help

I would imagine that you probably have a normal desktop socket 478 pentium 4 processor despite it being from a laptop, so just look at any of the threads reccomending 478 boards for the p4, i'm an AMD man so i don't really know what intel boards are that good.

I aswell am an AMD man myself. Iv heard people say that laptops are usually 478. But im pretty sure your right now. Thanks guyz.

Can't find anything with SL689, must be wrong. Can you look at it with a magnifying glass?

refers to p4 2.4: 'I can see on the IHS is SL689'

[batboy]

I can see on the IHS is SL689, but it's hard to be sure as some of the TIM is stuck to the IHS.

Maybe it's incorrect too? The Intel s-spec finder has nothing listed for SL689. That's not to say it don't exist, but we can't tell anything about it if Intel don't list it.
