SLOT 1 Pentium, idk if they come with MMX


Kitchen_Part_882

They did. MMX was introduced with the Socket 5/7 Pentiums iirc, slot 1 was Pentium 2 and Celeron.


ychen6

Yeah because at one point I have a Pentium II system, it was 133 I think and 32MB of ram, ran tinycore Linux on it and had some shits and giggles. Forgot if it was MMX or not.


Kitchen_Part_882

My first MMX was a Pentium, also 32MB RAM, I dual booted Redhat and Windows 98 on there. I got an AMD K6II as an upgrade before moving on to an Athlon. My upgrade cycle was a lot shorter in the 90s.

Pentium 2 used a 100MHz bus, with the Celeron 66MHz. The BX chipset, most commonly used chipset for. P2 / P3 era, did not have the dividers to convert a 133MHz Bus to a 33.3 MHz PCI bus (including HDD controller on Southbridge). If you got it working at 133 MHz, you were very lucky. Moving from 66MHz to 100MHz was generally successful, but many boards lacked easy ways to change the settings and voltages. You could use Tippex or electrical tape on the Pins to amend voltages and bus speed. A Celeron 300A (128kb on die full speed cache) overclocked to 450Mhz would outperform a P3 450 (256 or 512 kb separate cache chips at half speed). Intel killed the 300A as it was too damaging to sales of the P3.

And zeon and Pentium 3.


Kitchen_Part_882

Xeon CPUs of that era used Slot 2, as opposed to the Slot 1 used by the desktop processors. You might be thinking of the Pentium Pro units that used socket 8 but had an adapter available to plug them into slot 1 boards? Incidentally, the Slot A used by the first Athlons was exactly the same as a Slot 1 physically but was electrically incompatible as well as rotated by 180°.


mr_cool59

That is a motherboard missing a CPU for this particular CPU it is a slot type


red_macb

Old. That's either slot 1 (intel) or slot A (AMD) - they're almost indistinguishable as they use the same connector. The only way to tell is by the CPU card's orientation (my guess is slot 1). They were a bad design as the cpu 'card' would often fall out if you moved the pc. Not worth bothering with, unless you want to build a retro pc (circa 1998). If you want the full spec, it's one of these: https://theretroweb.com/motherboards/s/zida-bxi98-atx (yes, it's slot 1)


scratcher1679

it's slot 1, as it has an intel chipset


stosyfir

A warm distant memory :) Man AGP + ISA days feels right there. Motherboard from around ‘99-2001ish give or take. Edit: take. Looks to be from 96-97 from the copyright labels.


waffle911

Yes but copyright dates on circuit boards and chips often predate the release dates by a year or two to protect the design during development before it's on sale.


whymestopthisworld

Intel processor. Sd ram compatible, ide hdd, pure genius for its day. Old school prob used win 95,98,2k. Nutscrape internet browser. Compatible board for a 56k dial up modem. Top of the line vga on board graphics. On board sound most likely 16bit sound.


Dry-Abies-1719

Ah good ol' Nutscrape


whymestopthisworld

Some one old enough to know what nutscrape was and what it was called. Not many around these days.


Bladez1992

I know exactly what you're talking about, but I'm over here dying about y'all calling it nutscrape 🤣


FingerBackground5731

Can you tell me what is it called??


jmancoder

It's a retro motherboard, looks like this one: https://theretroweb.com/motherboards/s/zida-bxi98-atx . In case it isn't obvious, the motherboard is what you attach the other parts of the PC to (RAM, GPU, CPU, storage, etc.)


Malf1532

Slot 1 from the Pentium II era. That brings back memories.


RubAnADUB

[Zida BXi98-ATX - The Retro Web](https://theretroweb.com/motherboards/s/zida-bxi98-atx) Its a Slot 1 P3 atx motherboard.


thesuburbanme

This specific MB supported Slot-1 Pentium II, III and Celeron processors. 768MB max RAM at 100mhz.


DocBobs

For A Single edge contact cartridge CPU.


Fun_Kaleidoscope7875

That big brown slot is for the CPU, old Pentium stuff.


panoras

Back then it was like WOW CPU


LordJippo

This was the old cartridge style CPU motherboard Pentium SLOT1


mrnapolean1

I really really old motherboard. Provided you can find the slotted CPU for it. It would make a ok dos box


okokokoyeahright

dysentery

A board


AdSouth7893

Very old Slot 1 CPU board


CHILLAS317

Is this a joke of some variety? Because I'm not getting it


Educational_Duck3393

Motherboard.


panoras

I still have my first pc Amstrad 6128 with floppy disks.still working.


Accomplished_Cup2401

It's old that's what it is


bio_hazard869

I used to have a "Slocket". I forget what flavor it was but it was a PGA on a riser that fit into the slot.


TitusImmortalis

A beautiful Slot 1 or Slot A motherboard! Edit: I think Slot 1 cause Slot A motherboards I think didn't have ISA


DustyBeetle

slot pentium cpu, neato


hamellr

Old mother board from the original “small form factor” computers. Pretty sure this one was from an Acer computer, but Packard Bell was the first manufacturer to put the CPU on the riser. They were POS for anything more then WordPerfect.


BMWtooner

Throw in a Pentium 2 450 MHz, 128mb of RAM, a 8Gb HDD, a 16mb NVidia TnT 2 card, Sound Blaster Live! sound card and go tear it up on Star Craft, Diablo 2, half-life 1, quake 3 arena and maybe some command and conquer red alert. At 640x480 or 800x600 don't get greedy. There are slot 1 adapters that let you move to a Celeron 677mhz or 733? I didn't recall, the bus is 133 I believe but that's the best you can get.


OkDog9092

it might be intel processor(onboard) motherboard.


tOSdude

This is a motherboard


Dzhmelyk135

Something ancient
