oh. im in the US. dunno how we would do it then?

The mobo may only support the Willamette core processor... Not sure, but I have a socket 478 mobo and it says Prescott on it, so I'd assume it will only work with Prescott core processors? Don't have a diff type P4 to test out on it though. If you can find a cheap P4 that's faster than yours you might as well try it. I bought a 2.8GHz Prescott P4 for $30 off a guy once. Those are the best of the P4's, but they run HOT.

I think there are some Pentium Ds that are socket 478. You could at least get a faster P4.

p4 at 2.8 ghz is the fastest i have found.
