I have a Pc 400 M930LR,it has a 1.8 P4 now, will a Celeron 2.6 work in it?

Doubtful. Your PC is most likely a 478 or even 423 socket. You will have to replace it with a like socketed chip and one that your BIOS understands. eBay a P4 2.4 same socket is probably the fastest you will get your BIOS to support, check with the motherboard manufacturer on CPU support since you did not give enough information here.

Yes, it'll work just fine. Games aren't dependant on the CPU. If it'll work on a P3, it'll definitely work on a P4, as P4 can handle more than a P3.

If you can tolerate 1.13 GHz lieu of 1.4GHz, they are going for about 20 bucks on Ebay. I am pretty sure your current processor is a "Slot 1", but if i'm wrong, then you have a "socket 370". You'll need to know this for sure before you buy a P3 replacement.

The Cpi can likely be upgraded to a 400MHz processor -- but that's the MAX. I say that because the 500MHz were Pentium III's and they for sure wouldn't be compatible (there's no such thing as a 500MHz Pentium II). BUT even if you can get a 400MHz processor in it, for the minimal amount of speed it's really not worth the time or money. Add some more RAM instead. It should take either PC66 or PC100 RAM. Get two sticks of 128MB's  for a total of 256MB and that will do you a lot more good than a slightly faster processor. Also, re-do your operating system if your computer is slow-- that's the #1 cause of slow computers--- too much software having been added and/or removed and they get slow as molases. Good luck....

Odds are you will need an adapter.\n\nIf I recall correctly, the 1.0 GHz chips were the last ones electrically compatible with the older boards.\n\nTo be honest, the odds are pretty good the the P3 actually benchmarks equally if not better.\n\nI'd test it before messing around with it.  Benchmark them with something like FreshDiagnose.

it is compatable with the following CPUs\n\nAMD Athlon™ XP Processors\nAMD Athlon™ Processors\nAMD Duron™ Processors\n\ncopy the threee lines of this link for complete compatability\n\nftp://ftp.fic.com.tw/\nmotherboard/cpu_table/\nsocketa/at31.pdf

It Doesnt Matter The Ram Speed In Each Slot\nBut The Ram Chipsets Must Be The Same\nIf Its A 4chip Ram Both Might Be\nAnd if Its 8 Chip Then Both Must Be\nThe Probelm With Intel Celeron Is Its Cachmemmory\nU Can Get Over That Problem By Increasing Ram\nThe Best Brands U Can Buy Is "Kingstone,Spectec"\nU Can Buy Any Hardware From Ebay.com\nand Dont Hear Anymore Answers

Yes, they work together fine.  My parents have a Gateway Performance 750 and when upgrading I could not find a PC100 stick of RAM anywhere for some reason.  I used PC133 and it works fine.  For the best performance you should use matching RAM (though I don't think it will really matter if you have to use 100MHz or 133MHz RAM - still slow).  This is to make sure that there is no bottleneck within the memory pathways and that the timings are identical.

the differance between processors depends on many parameters, not only the speed, some of these parameters:\n1- The speed of the processor\n2- Level 1 of the cash memory\n3- Level 2 of the cash memory\n4- Any additional technologies in it such as 'hyperthreading' or 'dual core' or 'LGA' and so on\nbut i think in ur case the big differance in the speed of the two processors sides the celeron 1.3 'the better', but u must show also the cash memory it is very important parameter

windows xp home and professional support hyper-threading. you need an intel pentium processor that supports it. celerons do not have it amd processors do not have it. and i believe the regular pentium d's (dual core) dont have it (the extreme editions do). u will know if u have hyper-threading by bringing up the task manager (alt ctrl del) and clicking the performance tab if your cpu graph is split then u have hyper-threading enabled (2 graphs per cpu or core)

1 MB L2 Cache would be v.good. if you want more then 2 MB would be great. But what you need to watch out for more than the cache is not getting a celeron processor because it would be slow. Also you should care about the bus speed of the processor and the motherboard.

Matthew,,,\n\nIf you've got a 1ghz Celeron,,\nthat family of Celerons only goes to 1400ghz\n\nCelerons,Tualatins,Pentium 3's\n\nYou need to know what model of Emachines.\n.......................................................................................................\nPentium III 1.4 server CPU's are considered fastest Socket 370 \nThey can be found about $35\n\nCeleron 1.4's can be had for $25 or so.\n\n+40%  /  400ghz is a decent jump up from a 1ghz cpu\n\nEmachines are notorious for having small amount of RAM.\nIf you do wanna upgrade it,,,make sure RAM size is maxed out  1st\n\nThey usually can only take 512mb,,,2 x 256mb PC133 RAM.\nYou can find good "Dell Compaq HP" Ram on EBAY for \n$20~25  per 256mb stick.\n\nI might as well mention Video Cards.\nMost 1ghz Emachines have built-in Graphics,,and no AGP slot for hi-performance Upgrade.\nBut you CAN upgrade to a PCI Vid Card---some strong ones available in 40~50$ range.\n\nthey not only boost graphics performance,,but reduce load on CPU & RAM\n\nA $ 75~100~125 Upgrade wont put a 1ghz machine in the class of a 3.33Mhz job,,\nbut it IS a very substantial improvement in performance on avg 1ghz Emachine\n\nHope that helps any

Pentium 4 is a much more sophisticated and modern system than a Celeron and according to your specs, which seem wrong, I would hazard a guess of 1.8Ghz though that could be because it is being overclocked from 1.5Ghz

Pentium M is for Mobile gadgets, it's intended for laptops notebooks, etc. Never use it for a desktop computer. Or if you want to make a light traffic print server, Celeron would make a nicer deal, M is way too powerful and way too expensive for things like that.

Since you have a dell the chances are that your MB support a Pentium class processor- this would hugely upgrade your performance! See if you can find what "slot" type your processor is- infact being celeron it might be 478... Then your next step would be more memory... If you have any open slots then another 512 stick would be great. Newegg.com usually has great prices! These two components would be a great asset!

as long as it's DDR you'll be fine ... even if it's faster DDR like for example PC400 it will still "clock back" to the 266 that your board uses ....
