P4 2.4B-2.4C with 865PE-875P vs AXP 2500+ with nForce2

CPU by Zroc @ 2003-05-12

With the newly released Springdale (865PE) and Canterwood (875P) motherboards and 800FSB P4?s, intel has taken a huge leap in both stock speed and overclockability. Will this crush the competition - the very affordable nForce2 + Barton combo - or are PAT, Hyperthreading, integrated S-ATA, and Gigabit lan just buzz words?

> 133/166/200FSB

Different levels of 2000MHz...:

Fun to look at. I bumped up the clockspeed to 2000, at took a look at that 2000 at 133, 166 and 200 FSB's. This board cooperated with me marvelously as well...CPU-Z reported 133.6, 167, and 200.5, which gave me 2004, 2004, and 2005, repectively. Can't get much tighter than that.

This chart gives you a good idea of how nicely the nForce2/Barton benefit from FSB gains...AMD's upcoming push to 200 FSB parts will definitely help.
