What processor is this?!

**T07N** · 10-10-2006 03:31 PM

My uncle gave me a processor that he claim is the Core 2 Duo or Core Duo. Is this a laptop processor? I can't fit it on a 775 socket? Anyone have any idea what processor this is? Thanks.

Banias chip???

It is very old to e a Core 2 Duo...

**T07N** · 10-10-2006 03:38 PM

No my uncle tested it on another motherboard at his work and he said it's Core Duo. I'm wondering if it's one of those laptop core duo.

i believe thats a Pentium 3....i guarantee i think

P4 dont look like that...period....a C2D definitly is not

I say P3 or Celeron

**GoriLLakoS** · 10-10-2006 03:42 PM

If you search at google(which is our friend :P ) it says something about P3...

**fullmetal** · 10-10-2006 03:51 PM

just as i suspected

You win this round FullMetal, but you'll never win the war!

**Lestat** · 10-10-2006 03:56 PM

yeah definately pentium 3 something

try using the site from the company that actually made the cpu
you might be amaxed at what you find when you actually search there

and your sig is just a tad excessive why dont you save all of us and actually resize it to a size that doesnt take up 1/2 a page

**fullmetal** · 10-10-2006 03:59 PM

the war has been won

also u might have to serach deeper into the intel site because this thing is old....
they prolly put it in the farthest database possible

**T07N** · 10-10-2006 04:01 PM

Hmmm, they still made P3 in 2003? I think it's a laptop Core Duo. I search google and got nothing.

**pissboy** · 10-10-2006 04:06 PM

Its a Pentium-M Dothan according to this -

**cky2k6** · 10-10-2006 04:12 PM

that is no p3, it has around 478-479 pins if you compare it to a yonah chip on google images... from the die and packaging date, id say its a early core duo es, and no not core 2 duo, core duo... nevermind, its a dothan. http://www.gamepc.com/images/labs/rev-dothan-chipLG.jpg

I was counting the pins and I was thinking the same thing! Well I guess it's a Core Duo. Damn, so much for getting excited. I thought he gave me some prototype Core 2 Duo.

Thanks everyone!

dang...i lost..its not a P3.....dang

thats what I said

**The Nemesis** · 10-10-2006 05:00 PM

looks like a CORE DUO T2300 or so, socket 479, for laptop etc.

**cirthix** · 10-10-2006 05:13 PM

i'ts a dothan es in BGA packaging eh? you wont find a motherboard for that lol, it needs to be soldered to the board.

I atually have a use for it though.... lol, depending on the speed. pm me, aim me (sn=cirthix), or email me (cirthix a.t gmail d0.t com)

edit: it's likely a 1.2, 1.1, or 1.0ghz ULV chip, in which case, i'm VERY VERY VERY VERY interested. i'm doing a project and NEED n ULV ES chip. it's not any use to you since it's a chip that needs to be soldered to a board.

**fade2green514** · 10-10-2006 05:16 PM

try plugging it into a socket 478 motherboard. if it doesnt fit i believe asus sells an adapter that converts 478 to socket 479 or something like that if you want to know badly enough.

it has no pins, you can't plug it into anything. i'ts BGA packaging. and you don't just "try" to put it into an incomptaable motherboard, you'll fry at least one of them. 478 is very differnt from 479

**T07N** · 10-10-2006 07:22 PM

It's a core duo for laptop. 2ghz model. I can get the pin model instead of bga. My uncle has both. He's willing to give me one. I'll trade someone a pinned model worth $250-300 on newegg.com for a E6400 if anyone is interested to get one of these for a laptop upgrade.

**babalouj** · 10-10-2006 08:05 PM

This pic is an early core duo (yonah) ES chip, your chip doesnt look anything like that but it does look exactly like this pentium m7x5 series. The traces on the front match up perfectly with your chip. So based on pin configuration indicated by the traces, the core size, and the core orientation the chip you have shown us is some sort of dothan ES BGA chip not a core duo.

**T07N** · 10-10-2006 09:50 PM

I'm gonna take a screen shot of my uncle's setup with these chips later. I'll tell you guys what it actually is in a week or two.

**oijkue** · 10-11-2006 12:42 AM

Any idea what is this? It seems like LGA771 platform

The words on IHS says this is 04xx week,but LGA771 mobo not available in 2004

This is the same core (?) of LGA775 version

source here

someone says its maybe a Tejas core
anyone have idea about this? thx

If I were you, I would cover that serial number.
