| Intel Pentium 4 3.0GHz LGA775 Processor 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 http://www.cluboc.net/reviews/cpu/in.../3.0/index.htm

| 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.
