I have 2 HP workstations that I want to modify. One will become an HTPC and the other will be a Shuttle (or similar SFF). Forgive my noobness but I've not looked at a P4 CPU in years (I've been an AMD fiend as long as I can remember).

Can someone enlighten me as to what Socket types I am using here? One is a P4 2.8Ghz processor with HT. The other is a P4 2Ghz processor.

All this socket nonsense is confusing the hell out of me…!
 
Thanks - exactly what I needed.

However, on the 2Ghz machine it doesn't give me a package type. Can I just confirm that a Northwood processor's socket type is a Socket 478?
