I have a Dell 4100 P3 1GHz system and I was just wondering...is my processor different from the retail version of an Intel P3 1GHz FCPGA socket 370 processor?
I know that most brand manufacturers use custom parts such as PSU, motherboard, graphics cards, etc. But is there such a thing as a custom processor?
I know this is a silly question, but I was thinking... what if I damage my processor from all the tinkering I'm doing...will I have to buy from dell (@!%*&) or can I buy retail somewhere?
I'm definitely building my own system next time to avoid this kinds of issues, but for now I hope someone can answer my question.
Thanks.
