Title: 3.0GHz s478 for a s473 mobo
Post by: TeaLeaf on September 01, 2004, 02:02:51 PM
Stuck with a socket 423 RAMBUS system and don't know how to upgrade?

Why not take a socket 478 cpu and squeeze it really hard into the cpu slot using this (http://www.tomshardware.com/cpu/20040830/index.html).

TL.

It's cheaper than a whole new system which is what you would otherwise have to buy if you wanted to upgrade.
