Help please on a Intel Pentium II Question.

My Network Administrator got in a big argument about one of the labs that has some POS Compaq Presarios. These Presarios are the model number 5034S and he claims they have SOCKET 1 Pentium II chips in there. I remember upgrading memory and they were socket processor with NO slotket sticking out with a AMD k6-2 333MHZ processor. But NOOOOOOOOO, he think he is Mr. Smarty and knows everything. I swore that PII's weren't made at a speed of 300MHZ, correct me if I am wrong. Am I right guys? 🙂
 
just tell him to buy some 2 ghz p4's from me and be done with the argument.

wait....then you'll probably start arguing about what theme to use with xp.

Well, since the school board has NO money and we have "too" many computers that would be a negative Andrew/David. Plus, he only buys from Central Data.

why exactly were you arguing about that? why not pop the thing open and if you are wrong, say oops, you were right sorry.
 


<< centraldata or techdata? i never heard of central b4.

maybe thats where they got all those crappy compaq's....

Central Data, it is a reseller in Titusville man, they sell Sun, HP, and Compaq shiat. 😛
 


<< P2's went from 233 (pretty sure that was the lowest) up to 450. I thought there were 300s and would ASSume there were.

EDIT: P2 300s

LOL! That's how I confirmed it too Skoorb 😀
 


<< I still have a couple of 300 sitting right next to me.. >>



Are they sockets or slots? That's what I am asking.

Skoorb, that link is to a bunch of Slot 1 PIIs, I know they made them in Slots.

DaiShan, I got in the argument right after my bell rang for the end of class.
 
ALL P2's were slot format. The celerons and P3's were the only ones that were in socket format.

PII's were made at 300Mhz. (3x100MHzFSB)

They were only made in slot form because of the 512k of cache that was located on the PCB inside the slot 1 cartridge. The processors were available at speeds of 233 MHz, 266 MHz, 300MHz, 333 MHz, 350 MHz, 400 MHz and 450MHz. The only PII available in socket form was the Pentium II Overdrive chip which was available at 333MHz and was used to upgrade Socket-8 Pentium Pro motherboards.

THAT MEANS I AM RIGHT!!!!!!! HAH! HE OWES ME 20 BUCKS!!!!! 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀

ayup

I still remember my P3 650@ 860 those were the days mmm

Yep, and I have an old 300MHz chip lying around here somewhere.

The best was that there is a PII's in there, he is pretty sure of himself that there is. He thinks that there is 300MHZ P2's Sockets in there. By your post, Intel didn't make socket 300MHZ P2's so that means I won. 😀
