1.	Solve : motherboard to run a Pentium D prcessor in my ATX full tower case??
Answer» This Intel - Celeron motherboard is history, but I have 3 brand new Pentium D CPU's so I need a motherboard to run one of these CPU's in this machine. Case is ATX full tower. I have 650w PSU, IDE optical drives, IDE or Sata hardrives ect. And I need to do this at MINIMAL cost. What mboard do you guys recommend? What about this one? As always, thanks for any help! MikeIt would DEPEND on which Pentium's they are...Pentium D 805 The etched characters on the CPU itself are: Intel 04 Pentium 805 SL8ZH Malay 2.66 GHZ/2m/533/05A L621A751 Wait a minute patio - I just realized I have a good BTX motherboard that runs this Pentium D 805 CPU which came out of a DELL E510 that I recently replaced in error (the problem ended up being a PSU issue). Is there any way I can run a BTX mboard in this ATX full tower case? I have 2 OLDER steel cases that have where I could move the brass standoffs and set it up for BTX or ATX etc, but with the failure of the BTX finding a case that supports both may be a needle in haystack. Below is all the info on ways to get BTX to work with ATX cases etc, but they are pretty ugly if performed. Probably the best solution would be to make a stencil of the BTX mounting holes with pen and paper and then drill and tap an ATX case and install brass stand offs at the BTX locations if your going to use a modern case that is ATX. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BTX_%28form_factor%29 Quote from: lectrocrew on March 09, 2013, 08:30:10 PM This Intel - Celeron motherboard is history, but I have 3 brand new Pentium D CPU's so I need a motherboard to run one of these CPU's in this machine.

G31 supports Pentium-D
Asrock says it's supported: http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.us.asp?Model=G31M-GS%20R2.0
Pentium® Dual Core is Pentium-D

Pentium D-805: http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Pentium_D/Intel-Pentium%20D%20805%20HH80551PE0672MN%20%28BX80551PE2666FN%29.html
Bus speed = 533MHz
CPU speed = 2667 MHz

You will need DDR2-800 or 667 RAM
You will be able to try overclocking with the Asrock if you raise the Bus Speed from 133. CPU is quad-pumped, so it's bus speed is 133x4=533.
