How do I find out what socket type my CPU uses?


Recommended Posts

My computer is a few years old and even after cleaning the CPU fan is a bit too noisy. I want to replace it with a better heat sink and quieter fan. But I don't know what socket type the processor is to make a choice.

The processor is a 3GHz Pentium 4, running at the stock 800 megahertz bus clock, on an HP 0868h motherboard. The computer is a HP XW4100.

Can anyone help?
