Intel Pentium 4 SL6DV 2.4GHz 533MHz FSB 512KB Socket 478 Northwood CPU

Intel Pentium 4 SL6DV 2.4GHz 533MHz FSB 512KB Socket 478 Northwood CPU

The Intel Pentium 4 SL6DV is a 2.4GHz desktop processor built on Intel's Northwood core, manufactured using a 0.13-micron process. It fits the Socket 478 (mPGA478B) platform in the 478-pin FC-PGA2 package and runs with a 533MHz front side bus, placing it in the second-generation Northwood family that succeeded the original 0.18-micron Williamette P4 core.

Applications

The Pentium 4 Northwood on Socket 478 was Intel's mainstream desktop platform from roughly 2002 through 2004, targeted at home PCs, business desktops, and budget workstations of that era. The 533MHz FSB Northwood chips like this SL6DV were compatible with a wide range of chipsets including the Intel 845, 850E, 865, and 875P, and supported popular boards from ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI, and ABIT. Today these processors are sought after for restoring period-correct systems, classic PC builds, retro gaming rigs running early-2000s titles, and legacy software environments that require the hardware of that generation. The Northwood core was notable for its improved power efficiency and thermal performance over the earlier Williamette P4, making it the more desirable of the two Socket 478 generations for collectors and restorers alike.
