What socket # is P133 and P120

What socket # is P133 and P120s it 5 or 7?

 

[Plester]

7

The 486 processor used the Socket-5 architecture. All CPU's ranging from the P75 to the renowed K6-600+ use the (super) socket 7 format.

Socket 7.

Socket 7

All of you are wrong :/

Pentium 120mhz uses socket 5, while P133 uses socket 7. Pentium 60-120 are backwards compatable in socket 7 architecture.

Hope that cleared everything up.

486 was socket 4.

the lower speed Pentium's were socket 5.
The higher ones (100? and up) were socket 7.

I think socket 5 and 7 are pin compatiable, but socket 5 doesnt have support for something required for the higer speed Pentiums.

I still have an old P60 system, and it definately resides in a Socket-4 socket. I went to check with a friend, and his old 486 is using Socket-5.

One of the things I do know is that my motherboard doesn't support anything other than the P60 it's housing now, so I would find it very strange that the Pentium75-120 would also use the Socket-5 architecture.

Gawd, try Google people ...

yea i was wondering why everyone was saying socket 7 for ALL the pentiums from 60+, my old p120 is socket 5

 

[richiew]

yah, lower clocked processors were socket 5. i want to say they started socket 7 with the 166's, but i'm not sure.

my p90 (with that stupid floating point bug) was a socket 5.

486 was skt 2 and 3
early pentiums were skt 5
133 and later were skt 7

all wrong
socket 3 - 486
socket 4 - P5 60/66
socket 5 - P5 75-133
socket 7 - P5 75-233(mmx)

 

[Petro89]

OK, that's right. But I still think that there was a socket 2 486.
