Thread: Conflicting information about Pentium M

What's the deal? I've read places that say Pentium M's are 479 pin. Is this correct, will any Pentium M work with the MOBO above?

Wasn't that hard to figure out.

Forgot this one, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...ge.2C_90_nm.29

don't be too hard on DrewSG, it doesn't help when Intel's site states 478 for some of their chips, see

and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...icroprocessors say 479

Thanks for not being a smartass.

And yes, that was the reason why I started the thread, mainly because Intel's website states Pentium M processors are listed as Socket 478. So when you go on ebay and other sites, it lists as 478 too.
