478 vs 775 sockets
I'm building a new computer with a Celeron 2.66 GHz. I'm deciding
between the 478 and 775 chipsets. What are the advantages/disadvantages of each considering they are about the same price these days. The motherboard I will be using is either the Asus P4P800-SE or P5P800.

Those are CPU sockets. The 775 is the newest one made for intel CPU's. If
you're building a new machine, I'd recommend using the newest equipment as they get old awfully fast "master" wrote in message ... I'm building a new computer with a Celeron 2.66 GHz.

Be careful and make sure that you get the correct CPU for the motherboard.
Read the acceptable CPUs from the motherboards data page on Intel's web site. -- Wayne Morgan "master" wrote in message ... I'm building a new computer with a Celeron 2.66 GHz.

is it true that the new 775 sockets consume more power and create more
heat? And that's why the larger heatsink/fan?

It's the new CPU's that go in the sockets that give off more heat
