Re: [H] Pentium-M desktop motherboard
What I had seen online, though, is that most desktop MB's don't support the signaling to make the chip run at full speed (Speedstep) so even though you may have a 3ghz chip, it's going to run at 1ghz or whatever it's clocked down to by default. It may just not be worth using. :( Greg Sevart wrote: The reason I asked about the P4-M vs P-M is because they do not use the same socket. P4-M uses s478, whereas P-M uses s479.

Re: [H] Pentium-M desktop motherboard
This is just going to be for a media server in my house. I was hoping a $50 board was out there for it. I have plenty of RAM at my disposal. I only really wanted to buy a board and a case.

Re: [H] Pentium-M desktop motherboard
One of my servers is a 2 gig pentium-M using the AOpen i915GMm-HFS. Rock solid and stable with pretty good TV-output too. lopaka Anybody know of a desktop motherboard that will accept a Pentium-M processor? I yanked a 3.06ghz Pentium-M from a dead Dell and would like to use it in some sort of desktop system.

[H] Pentium-M desktop motherboard
Anybody know of a desktop motherboard that will accept a Pentium-M processor? I yanked a 3.06ghz Pentium-M from a dead Dell and would like to use it in some sort of desktop system.
