I want to upgrade my current Pentium 4 processor.
3.0 GHz
Prescott (90 nm)
1 GB L2 cashe
MMX, SSE(1,2,3), Hyper-Threading
I wanted to put in a dual core Intel T8300 which i saw online that had the same socket as my P4, but am not sure it will be compatible. Or even a 3.4 GHz P4.
So i guess my question is what is the best/ most powerful processor i can replace into my m/b ???
