I have a Celeron D 360 from a few years back just laying around and i was thinking about making a junk backup computer.

Crap i just have from past systems :

Celeron D 360
Foxconn Blackops X48
TRUE Black
4GB DDR3 1600
Two 80GB WD HD's In R0
Pair of 4770's in X Fire
650W BFG PSU
DVD Burner


I'm pretty sure she'll do 5Ghz with a TRUE but i don't want to assemble it if it's not going to run. Any idea's?

Foxconn's CPU compatibility web page for the Blackops X48 is down, but I highly doubt that the Celeron D 360 would work in that board. Intel supposedly removed support for NetBurst-based CPUs like your Celeron D 360 in the 30-series and later chipsets. You'd need a 955/965/975-based board to run the Celeron D. However, you can put just about any Core 2-based unit in that X48 board and give it a run for its money. The new Wolfdale 1M-based Celeron Dual Core E3xxx series is pretty cheap (the cheapest one is $52) and supposedly overclock very nicely with quite a few people getting to 4 GHz. I'd go that route if I were you.

Yes, I am actually still running the Pentium III 1.0B Coppermine in the picture.

First post and the best answer. Thanks bro. An E3200 celeron was a possibility if the crapburst didn't work.

Edit - Fry's sell's a 50 dollar biostar G31 mobo that will run the 360. Jackpot baby. Hello 5Ghz :lol:

Foxconn's CPU compatibility page is back up:

http://www.foxconnsupport.com/cpus [...] S&cputype=


Celeron D 360 is not listed.

The re-branded Celeron models E1200 and E1600 are listed there, however.

"Celeron D" is listed in the Specs at Newegg for this $70.00
ASUS P5GC-VMTPM LGA 775 Intel 945GC Micro ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail:

 

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6813131233

 


Also, this $70.00 ASUS P5G41-M LE/CSM LGA 775 Intel G41 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail

 

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6813131399

 

(Both use DDR2, however.)

 

I searched for "Celeron D" in Newegg's search window,
then clicked on "Intel motherboards (7)" .

 

Hope this helps.

Cedar Mill (D0 stepping) was a little cracker, shame they were overshadowed by the Core 2 release at the same time period, but they could all reliably get close to 5GHz....
