Wondering If I Can Put This

This is the current mobo I have now My Mobo This is the CPU I want to put in it, one of these 2! Are these compatible? Pentium III or Celeron 1.4Ghz Do these work? and which would you recommend.... I know these arent the best processors, but this 560Mhz shit SUCKS so anything is better!! and its only like 60 bux or so.

Teh celeron is p4 based so i don't think the celeron will fit

both will fit, but I'd say spend the extra & get the P-3.
it's not very expensive. They're both Socket 370 processors & compatible bus speeds.
I personally wouldn't buy from TigerDirect though.

Thanx Sparcley! Now why wouldnt you buy from tiger direct?? I have had AWESOME support from them and very easy returns....got nething bad happen to you? thanx!

no real reason...just don't trust em.
but if you've had good experiences, go for it! Again, it's a nice price.

*edit* make sure you buy a heatsink/fan.
or if you're gonna use the one you already have, get some thermal paste/pad.

Well according to Intel the m/board don't take that high a chip but then what do they know at the price take the 1.13 and run.
