This Intel Pentium 4 seems to fit into an AMD socket, but using it in a desktop with an AMD processor might not work properly.
No, it cannot be used in an AMD socket. It's an Intel CPU. That's a socket 478 Pentium 4 - they came before the LGA 775 P4s.
Pentium 4 models were available in two types of sockets: Socket 478 and LGA775. Prior to LGA775, Intel employed PGA sockets. Socket 370 and Slot 1 supported Pentium II and III chips, while Socket 478 was used for earlier Pentium 4 releases. Subsequent Pentium 4 variants transitioned to LGA775. My setup uses a Socket 478 board with a P4 processor. PGA and LGA connectors are distinct from those used by AMD and Intel, respectively. AMD utilizes LGA for Threadripper, Threadripper Pro, and Epyc chips.
It brings back memories of a different time. Did you know Intel used to be called PGA?
I'm still young at 55 years old. Just a bit behind in the PC world.
It seems you're referencing something about older tech. Your first PC had a Pentium D with dual cores.
