neeki4444 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2004 It depends on what voltage and socket your motherboard supports, if its an old celeron processor than no.However a motherboard can be purchased for a cheap price at tigerdirect.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

goranche 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2004 i agree with last 2 posts. If you have Celeron 1.7GHz and over that then you can upgrade your processor, but i recommend you to buy Pentium 4 Nortwood Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
