what is the memory capacity of pentium 3?

Answer 1

First let me clarify that the man ASKED what the capacity of the PROCESSOR is, NOT what the typical motherboard or chipset or BIOS LIMITS the maximum to. Wth that in mind, here is the BEST answer.
From a purely electronic point of view, the maximum ram capacity is 64GB (which started with the Pentium Pro, and is true right up to modern processors like the Pentium M Dothan now), but your system board may have further limitations to it.
The DELL Power Edge line for instance usually come with 1 to 8 GB RAM and up to six 146GB drives, while many standard motherboards seem to be limited to 512 MB RAM and up to 4 30G drives (without an overlay).
Although the PIII processor can address up to 64GB of ram, the system board may simply not have enough address lines run to the ram sockets, or simply not enough ram sockets to ppopulate it out that far.
If by memory you happen to mean hard drive capacity, 127GB is the normal upper limit, but this is a bit more of an OS limitation than a processor one.The BIOS may only support up to 30GB without using a software drive overlay (which is why some hard disks have a "cap limit" jumper to set them to 30GB).
Many companies offer overlays to get around this problem, like Maxtor's MaxBlast or Seagate's Disk Manager.

Answer 2

the maximum capacity features of any pentium 3 motherboard have a30gig for hard drive and a 512 mb memory ( 4x128 ) sdram 256 mb sdram is not supported by p3 the processor is maximum of 1.2 ghz by intel board chipset

Answer 3

depend to mb specificatin
but 2^32 = 4294967296 bytes in teory in real mode
and in protected mode 2^36 =68719476736 bytes
intel processor shift left 4 bit for more addresing
and p3 is a 32 bit processor
but in real market max 2 gb support

Answer 4

depends upon the motherboard, but I think the max would be 2 GB

Answer 5

20 GB

Answer 6

it depends on how much your motherboard can hold. you can check it out on the manual of the board and you can also check how many slots of sdram do you have.
