Some processors from the Pentium, Celeron, Core and Xeon brands of semiconductor company Intel Corporation can run on the Foxconn 661FX7MJ-RS, a personal computer motherboard from Taiwanese computer product manufacturer Hon Hai Precision Industry Co Ltd. This is due to a particular socket the motherboard possesses for physically and electrically connecting the processor. It is called Socket 775, released in 2004 and also known as LGA 775 or Socket T.
Pentium
Intel Corp. mainly made the socket on the Foxconn 661FX7MJ-RS for the Intel Pentium 4, which at the time of the socket's release was the company's flagship consumer-oriented processor brand. This included the Pentium D and the Pentium Extreme Edition, which are higher-end versions of the brand; and the Pentium Dual-Core, which succeeded the Pentium 4 in 2006. Pentium processors that can run on the Foxconn motherboard have a processor speed range of 1.6GHz to 3.73GHz.
Celeron
The Foxconn 661FX7MJ-RS, via its Socket 775, is also compatible with some Celeron processors, which constitute Intel Corp.'s entry-level brand. The processing speed range of the motherboard-compatible Celeron computer chips is 1.6GHz to 3.6GHz. The entries consist of the Celeron 400 series, Celeron D and dual-core Celeron processors.
Core
In 2006, Intel Corp. introduced the Core brand. By the end of the year, the Core brand had relegated Pentium to mid-range status and become the company's flagship brand of consumer-oriented processors. The compatible Core chips come from the Core 2 Duo, which is the dual-core version; the Core 2 Quad, which represents Core's quad-core chips; and the top-level Core 2 Extreme, which offers dual- and quad-core entries. The Foxconn 661FX7MJ-RS-compatible processors via Socket 775 cover a processing speed range of 1.8GHz to 3.33GHz.
Xeon
Some Intel Xeon processors can also run on the Foxconn 661FX7MJ-RS, particularly the quad-core Xeon 3000, E3000, L3000 and X3000 series. Intel designed these chips for use on servers and workstations, making them among the company's most powerful processors. Their processing speed range is 1.86GHz to 3.16GHz.
