Description

The listing, P4 3.0GHz Socket 775 CPU has ended.

Bought as a mistake from geeks.com, It is a SL7PU type and does not work on LGA sockets. Item is refurbished and "AS-IS!" Free shipping is done, because my card is reloaded by the company that promotes its service.

I'll upload pics of it. They said it was a 530J.

because i or my bro in law has a pentium 4 3.0 GHz same specs as this one, and its an lga(pentium 4 HT, 3.00GHz 800MHz FSB 1MB or mB (not to be confused with Mb or mb)(megabit is mb or Mb, & megabyte is MB or mB)

It did not work in an LGA socket. I checked and have the motherboard to prove it.

To clarify further, LGA stands for Land Grid Array which means there are no socket holes or pins. Previous CPU versions such as PPGA478 had pins and sockets had holes for the pins. LGA versions simply have contacts on both the CPU's and sockets. So iif your pic is of the actual CPU, you have the PLGA775 version. What motherboard did you try this in?

Intell 915pgn atx.

Agreed, I am OEM /custom solution system builder - It is for sure a LGA775 if the pic is the actual proc. It would also support HT - you stated it does not, so did u get a Celeron by any chance?

Nov 15th, 2011 at 3:06:03 PM PST by

Nope. It's a genuine, 1-core P4. without HT. I searched for one and got a Socket775 one by mistake.

You might want to verify it is a 530 series CPU - All the Prescott procs support HT - maybe you did not get what you ordered? Did u install it in a board? What kind and model? THX

It's not a prescott. And I did all of the above that you said..

Nov 15th, 2011 at 5:58:02 PM PST by

Not sure why you insist it doesn't have Hyper threading but IF it is an PLGA775 SL7PU 530J 3.00 Ghz, 800 Mhz FSB then it is a Prescott with Hyper Threading. Period.

Also, I checked on Intel's website and this processor is listed as supported by the Intel 915PGN motherboard. So if it didn't work for you I suspect it is a bad CPU, a misconfigured BIOS or it isn't a Pentium 4 530J.

It is a refurbished P4. However, the motherboard it was installed in had to be revised over and over again for errors.

Nov 16th, 2011 at 8:14:57 AM PST by

how is it refurbished? what type of damage could it have taken lol

Nov 17th, 2011 at 2:27:18 PM PST by

That's a good question. Sadly, I don't know as I got it by mistake from Geeks.

Bulletin some jealous basher flagged my auction regardlessly! If he/she know why, that person better come and say it to my face!

Not to be argumentative Mineat but LGA775, PLGA775 and Socket 775 are all names for the same socket type. This CPU comes in two versions PLGA 775 and PPGA 478. If you are certain this is the PLGA 775 version and you tried it in a Socket 775 motherboard and it didn't work I would suspect the motherboard. If you tried another CPU in the same motherboard that did work then maybe this CPU is a PPGA version or possibly even bad.

B4 you ask I have 30+ years in building, installing, repairing and maintaining computers both in homes and in manufacturing processes. I am certified in hardware and software applications and have a degree in Electronics Engineering Technology.

i never tried it elsewhere, only on an unsupported, yet new motherboard of the D915PGN series.

Nov 15th, 2011 at 6:02:12 PM PST by

this will work nicely XD

I second the HT notion stated by others here. CPUWorld says this CPU does support HT, NXbit, and it is a Prescott core. Something else I might add. I found this exact CPU on geeks.com and it says PLGA right in the description.

FYI, Regarding refurbishment. What happens usually is someone buys a CPU, doesn't know what they are doing when attempting to install/configure the thing, and mistakenly sends it back, thinking it is defective. The refurbishing process for these involves installing them into a tower by a trained technician. If they get it to work, voila, it is refurbished, but really, it is just USED, only with a higher price tag, and let's not forget, the word "refurbished" also sounds cooler. LOL
