I m using Packard Bell Desktop Mod. No. IXTREME 6052 & S/N : 030993520271 and have motherboard
Columbia V (GA-8SIML-NF5) Ver 2.0
Type: µATX motherboard
Manufacturer: Gigabyte
and the following is written at PackardBell Web site
CPU Support
Socket mPGA 478B
-Supports Intel P4 FC-PGA2 (Flip-Chip Pin Grid Array), 1400 MHz to 2800 MHz.
-Warning: not all the above processors have been qualified.
-100 MHz (x4 = 400 MHz) data bus support (Quad-Bumped technology).
-133 MHz (x4 = 533 MHz) data bus support (Quad-Bumped technology).
I want to upgrade the processor to P4 2.8 with at least 512kb cashe.(at present it is celeron 2.6 with128kb Cashe)
I visited all the related sites of Gigabite(no exact mod. found, Intel, packard bell but totally confused .
Please help me to find the right processor.
does this mother board supports both 400 & 533 bus speed?
can i use
SL7K9 Intel Pentium 4 2.8GHz Socket 478 533 FSB Processor with 1MB L2 Cache?

It goes by socket/slot type for processor, you have a PGA2 slot, so I dout a pentium 4 will work, look up pga 478b in wikipedia and it will tell you supported processors.. Its cache not cashe by the way ..

You already found the answer, reread these lines
CPU Support
Socket mPGA 478B
-Supports Intel P4 FC-PGA2 (Flip-Chip Pin Grid Array), 1400 MHz to 2800 MHz.
The CPU must fit a PGA478B socket,
and the clock speed must fall between 1400 MHz(1.4GHz) and 2800 MHz(2.8GHz)

With a CPU socket 478B it should be OK. Try a Pentium P4-2.53GHz 512KB FCPGA2 PGA478 533MHz Processor
Manufacturer Part Number: BX80532PE2533D. I don't think you'll get more out of it with 2.8GHz.

That is an older board. Good luck finding a processor that will fit it. It has to have a PGA2 connector, and be between 1400 and 2800mhz.
Take the specs to an good computer shop and they will undetand them. Whether they will have one in stock is another issue....and price wise you may find it cheaper to replace the PC then to replace the processor...
Good luck

center 2 duo processor socket isn't like 845 m/b socket. for c2duo processor you will require 945 sequence and above m/board. appropriate now intel 31 pr m/board is on the marketplace for around rs.3650/ chipset board will fee you around rs.2500/
