CPU Pins

Hello :) Can please anyone tell me the power pins of the CPU (I mean the - and the + (the negative and the positive pins)) :confused: My CPU is Intel Pentium 4, 2.40 GHz/1M/533, SL7YP COSTA RICA, 3439A359. Thanks :) :) :)
 
Are you trying to push power through your CPU directly, in an attempt to have the CPU produce heat? That is wrong on so many levels, the most obvious being that the CPU generates heat when under load, simply being powered on doesn't produce much heat.
 
Just to give you a comparison.

A standard USB port on a computer is 5V ~500mA, which is 2.5W

Your average personal space heater is ~1500W.
 
It will work but depending on how hot and efficient it is, is another matter. It's not the chip that does the heating. It's the little tiny resistors on the base. That's why you can do it with a dead chip. I'd like to do one but haven't found the time, have a old cpu tucked away worth almost nothing.

However I'd use a usb to socket or something. It may damage the pc if not made correctly. Plus the usb chargers are 12w so would be a bit more powerful ;). You need a full cpu spec diagram really for the ground and power pins. Or trial and error.

If you are legitimately going to do this just keep in mind ohms law. A standard usb puts out 500maH so whatever pins your going to use, make sure the resistance is above 10ohms.
 
My main question was "Hello :) Can please anyone tell me the power pins of the CPU (I mean the - and the + (the negative and the positive pins)) :confused: My CPU is Intel Pentium 4, 2.40 GHz/1M/533, SL7YP COSTA RICA, 3439A359. Thanks :) :) :)" So this is what I need. Nothing else!

From watching the video, it's clearly obvious that the person in the video didn't pay attention to "+" and "-" on the pins, as he soldered wire touching maybe 4-6 pins in various spots.

Yeah exactly, there isn't a simple positive and negative. There's a ton of circuits in a processor so get a multimeter and find one that's 10 ohms and above between two pins and use those.
