What does socket 478 mean?

Answer #1

Hi,

In computing, Socket 478 is a type of CPU socket used for Intel’s Pentium 4 and Celeron series CPUs. Socket 478 was phased out with the launch of LGA775.

The socket was launched with the Northwood core to compete with AMD’s 462-pin Socket A and their Athlon XP processors. Socket 478, which accommodates high and low-end processors, was also the replacement for Socket 423, a Willamette processor socket which remained in the market for only a short time.
