Intel Pentium 4 3.0GHz LGA775 Processor

@ 2004/10/04

Within just a few minutes, I was able to find the highest stable CPU bus speed; 250MHz! This comes out to about 3.76GHz! The amazing thing is the CPU is more stable at default voltage. I was able to go as high as 3.9GHz, but the system was unstable in games and kept crashing during benchmarks. I bet a little water cooling from Danger Den or Swiftech would fix that... Anyway, for this round of tests I'll be running at 3.76GHz

WZ's 2.4C is one in one thousand.

Then again, P4 2A @3.2.

Uhm you can 2.8@3.7 better then NW 2.4@3.6 ?

Comment from Sidney @ 2004/10/04

So what? I ran the 2.8E @3.5 daily, the sucker would go 3.7 only to fail Prime95 .... yet I could bench mark everything else.

Bottom line, Prescott is slower than Northwood, yet better OC than NW. But, that will be self denial.
