could you tell me cpu limit i my m/b ?

I've tried to know my motherboad cpu support limit, it confusing me, either.

Below is my motherboad cpu micro code info, could you tell me below cpu id meaning?
and cpu support limit ?


1. 478pin Celeron D :
2. northwood p4 :
3. fsb533 prescott p4 :
4. fsb800 prescott p4 :

** Micro Code Information **

Well, see again My question, it could anoying you.

celeron D series have 0f33, 0f34, 0f41, 0f49 IDs

Changing my question.

1. prescott p4 fsb533 L2 1MB 2.4A or 2.8A's cpu ID ?

2. prescott p4 fsb800 L2 1MB 2.8E, or 3.0E, or 3.2E' cpu ID ?

I can't find about those in intel home page, except celeron D.

0F33, 0F34, 0F41, 0F49 for all the cores you mentioned.
0F33 == C0 stepping, 0F34 == D0 stepping, 0F41 == E0 stepping and 0F49 == G1 stepping

Thakyou CP, it's very helpful for me.

According to intel proccessorfinder, my m/b surpport only 478pin L2 512KB pentium4, not prescott.


That truth disappointed me. I bought it, because of the spec shows prescott support.

northwoods smoke the prescotts anyway ,heck even the 256 cache pin modded mobile jobs do the numbers on em,mghz for mghz anyways.
faster pipelines see!
regardless of chip ht is a rort ,makes an otherwise slick pc run like a slug.
disable it and run single cpu format,any cpu that requires constant 100% clock cycle on any applications defines more like a trojan /virus within that application rather than the processors inability to cope(period).
dont be fooled by the salesmen hype.

dammed got that bit right!

dell 5100 mobile northwood,win xpsp2 boot to desktop=9.9 seconds,runs myob office 2007 without a single glitch.

asus dual core vista boot to desktop=150+seconds.+ cannot cope with myob,office 2007 like the dell can without errors.
