Understanding CPU Upgrades In theory, one way to t seems that every time a new software product is released the system require- ments are increased - everything from the hard drive capacity and CPU speed increase the performance of a Ito the required RAM. One of the apparently obvious ways to gain a speed PC with little effort is to increase is by upgrading the CPU. But such an upgrade isn’t always cost effective and in some cases simply increasing the available RAM can help considerably to upgrade the CPU. Surely it boost the apparent speed of the PC. Sometimes though the best (and maybe only) option is to upgrade the CPU, although this can be a more involved process than it can’t be that difficult? might at first seem due to socket/motherboard incompatibilities, differing CPU and Actually there’s lots to think RAM speed requirements, cooling problems and inevitably assorted knock-on effects causing the upgrade to be anything but cost effective. Also, it is worth about. remembering that just because the replacement CPU has, for example, double the clock rate of the old unit doesn’t necessarily mean that the new one will increase the By Phil Morris processing performance of the PC in question by anything like 100%. Technical Writer This article looks at some of the options for upgrading the CPUs in existing systems. It is extremely unlikely that recent processors like AMD’s Duron (and forthcoming Hammer) and Intel’s Pentium 4 and Itanium will require upgrading for some time, so I will omit those in the context of this article. -

Evolution of the Pentium
Chapter 7B – The Evolution of the Intel Pentium This chapter attempts to trace the evolution of the modern Intel Pentium from the earliest CPU chip, the Intel 4004. The real evolution begins with the Intel 8080, which is an 8–bit design having features that permeate the entire line. Our discussion focuses on three organizations. IA–16 The 16–bit architecture found in the Intel 8086 and Intel 80286. IA–32 The 32–bit architecture found in the Intel 80386, Intel 80486, and most variants of the Pentium design. IA–64 The 64–bit architecture found in some high–end later model Pentiums. The IA–32 has evolved from an early 4–bit design (the Intel 4004) that was first announced in November 1971. At that time, memory came in chips no larger than 64 kilobits (8 KB) and cost about $1,600 per megabyte. Before moving on with the timeline, it is worth recalling the early history of Intel. Here, we quote extensively from Tanenbaum [R002]. “In 1968, Robert Noyce, inventor of the silicon integrated circuit, Gordon Moore, of Moore’s law fame, and Arthur Rock, a San Francisco venture capitalist, formed the Intel Corporation to make memory chips. In the first year of operation, Intel sold only $3,000 worth of chips, but business has picked up since then.” “In September 1969, a Japanese company, Busicom, approached Intel with a request for it to manufacture twelve custom chips for a proposed electronic calculator. The Intel engineer assigned to this project, Ted Hoff, looked at the plan and realized that he could put a 4–bit general–purpose CPU on a single chip that would do the same thing and be simpler and cheaper as well. -

Il nuovo socket viene definito ZIF (Zero Insertion Force ) in quanto l'inserimento della CPU non richiede alcuna forza contrariamente ai socket LIF ( Low Insertion Force ) i quali, oltre a richiedere una piccola pressione per l'inserimento del chip, richiedono anche appositi tool per la sua rimozione. Il modello di socket ZIF installato sulla motherboard è, in genere, indicato sul socket stesso. Tipi diversi di socket accettano famiglie diverse di processori. Se si conosce il tipo di zoccolo montato sulla scheda madre è possibile sapere, grosso modo, che tipo di processori può ospitare. Il condizionale è d'obbligo in quanto per sapere con precisione che tipi di processore può montare una scheda madre non basta sapere solo il socket ma bisogna tenere conto anche di altri fattori come le tensioni, il FSB, le CPU supportate dal BIOS ecc. Nel caso ci si stia apprestando ad aggiornare la CPU è meglio, dunque, attenersi alle informazioni sulla compatibilità fornite dal produttore della scheda madre. -
