Hi all. I am wanting to upgrade and figured I check with you gurus first.
I need a Socket 478 P4 processor between 2 and 3 ghz. Anyone got one laying around they'd like to sell?

They might have some on Newegg... I remember seeing stuff for Socket 478s when I've been there recently. They have great shipping and customer service, here's a link:

I have a 2.66GHz, although not sure how well I can send it over seas without damage.

dont trust e-bay as much as I used to, though it'd probably get alot.

Found some good ones on newegg though.

Didn't read through the thread, so if for some reason you can't deal through Newegg, sorry about that.

Socket 478 Pentium 4 Processors (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2010340343+1051707443+1050706985&name=Pentium+4)

I would go for the open box 3Ghz. If you need a heatsink, Newegg has half a billion in all different shapes and sizes.

Good Luck on finding the right one,

Its not that I can't deal with NewEgg. I have ordered a few things from them. I just figured I'd check around here to see if anyone had some laying around and wanted to make some moola.

You're probably gunna wanna look into another heatsink with that 3GHz 478.

It's unfortunate that you'd have to replace pretty much everything to upgrade to 775 :o\

Yea I'm kinda trying to upgrade a little. I figure the next time I decide to upgrade I'll change out the mobo and stuff. I just can't swing a total rebuild right now. I ended up with a 2.6ghz processor which will get me almost to the limit on this mobo. I'll be happy with that for now.
I do intend on getting something better to cool the cpu with.
