Socket 423 is a 423 pin CPU socket used for the first generation of Pentium 4 processors, based on the Willamette core.
Technical specifications
This socket houses any processor designed in the Socket 423 package.
The socket was short-lived, as it became apparent that its electrical design proved inadequate for raising clock speed beyond 2.0 GHz. Intel produced chips using this socket for less than a year, from November 2000 to August 2001. It was replaced by Socket 478
This processor also has a locked multiplier which means that it is not overclockable.
The "PowerLeap PL-P4/N" is a device developed in the form of a socket adapter allowing the use of socket 478 processors on the socket 423.
