i got a ASUS A6VM with i915PM mod
i open the CPU socket up and it said "mPGA479M socket" with pentium M 735 Dothan in it
i Wondered if Core 1/2 duo mobile will work on that motherboard or not
my openion is that it might work with core 1 but not very sure with 64 bit core 2
The fact that im using ddr2 533mhz which is a 64bit bandwidth, so would it able to run core 2 ?


Image of the socket 479 CPU pentium m 735, still running while taken the pic.

Core 2 Duo is for Laptops too, but I'm not sure at all if it will work on that board.

915 series chipsets do not support Core 2 Duo.
Only 945'ers accept Merom.

i know u mailed me
this is my socket

seems to be insertable, but the motherboard wont support it then
lets see one day some 1 release a bios update for support core 1 duo
this could be a Asus CT-479 in here, so at least i can use 2ghz+ pentium-M

i got some questions
1.For the first quotes; "is this i915PM ????????"
2.If core 1 is inserted, will it even run?
3.will the battery of my note will go faster, suz it more than 21W (but its says more power consumption 20%)

It's not likely that the lack of Core 1 / 2 Duo support for i915 serie chipsets would be fixable via a bios update. For example desktop Core 2 Duo won't work with most of the older LGA775 chipsets and boards because of hardware incompatiblity (voltage regulators, etc.).

i915 is a Pentium-M chipset. Core 1 / 2 Duo requires a i945.

1. ASUS A6VM does have i915PM chipset
2. Core 1/2 processors would most likely refuse to POST (or even cause damage) if plugged into that board
3. Yes

the motherboard should have maximum voltage limitation or at a range and the processer can also be downclock/voltage too ryte? - same with bus speed
Watt of the CPU only effect the battery, am i correct?
Core 1 has 0.1 less voltage neede than my pentium-m, so would it be heating up a little
i would try core 1 until i have my 2nd laptop first lol

erm any merchant sell 945pm motherboards? XD

No, the chipset simply will not work with the CPU. Thats all. (Yeah I know it sucks)

I want a pentium M for my eeepc :(
