| Pentium 4 630 slower, more expensive claim EVEN THOUGH Intel hasn't yet released its Pentium 4 6XX series, nor the Exscream Edition running at 3.73GHz, cheeky French web site X86 Secrets has reviewed them. http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=21049 And, in startling news for Intel, if it turns out to be true, the Pentium 4 3.73GHz EE is slower than the 3.46GHz Pentium 4 EE on "most benchmarks". The site believes that results from a switch from the earlier and faster Northwood core to a slower Prescott core. source: http://www.x86-secret.com/popups/art...dow.php?id=119

| From I've read; Prescott oc'ed to 4 Ghz is slower than Northwood clocked at 3.5Ghz .... I will keep my Northwood for awhile yet.
