Re: HP Vectra VL420 with Celeron D possible?

Best to make sure that whatever Celeron D you buy runs at 400MHz FSB. A great
many of them (all of them?) require 533MHz FSB. If the motherboard does not
support 533MHz, the Celery D will not run at full speed. Likewise, if the
system memory is not currently PC2700 or faster, you will need to replace the
memory, too. All of this may argue in favor of finding an "old" Celeron, which
tops out at around 2.8GHz... Ben Myers
