What types of processors will my board take?

I have an Intel 865G motherboard and I would like to know what types of P4's and P4 w/HT it will accept.  When responding please respond with the corresponding Spec Number.  Thanks in advance.

Intel says it will support Pentium-D processors and Pentium 4's with HyperThreading: http://www.intel.com/products/chipsets/865g/index.htm

Pentium-D cpus: http://www.intel.com/products/processor/pentium_d/index.htm

Pentium4 HT cpus: click on processor number details http://www.intel.com/products/processor/pentium4/index.htm

I read that much on Intel's site.  However I couldn't find where it told me the exact processors that would work with my board, i.e. with the SPEC number.

"... All Pentium-D's are possible candidates ..." ==> Obviously this is not true if it's a Socket 478 board.

GTKINC --> to fully answer this question we need the exact make/model of your motherboard.

As an example of what CPU's are PROBABLY supported by an 865G board:

Here's a list of the processors supported by the 865G chipset on Intel's Socket 478 D865GBF board:

Here's a list of the processors supported by the 865G chipset on Intel's Socket 775 D865GSA board:

Yep - I realized the socket info was needed at the end, without thinking about what I had just typed at the beginning, before the revelation (I should have edited it while I had the chance, but I got busy at work).
