    4.1 GHz 805D???

    probably your ram thats limiting you then!!!! you should be able to hit somewhere between 3.3-3.6 GHz on DEFAULT voltage....;)

    4.1 GHz 805D???

    Change PSU!! Also look over your cooling. I wouldn't be comfortable with anything above 64C for 100% stability 24/7 Mine does 2.66@3.90 (FSB195) 1.5Gig Mushkin Black label&Xtreem 500MHz (Winbond BH-5 chips) idle 36C, Full load dual prime 62C Watercooled

    Conroe and Memron

    Merom is the successor to Yonah with a better performance per watt ratio and also with added features such as Vanderpool Virtualization Technology and EM64T. Conroe is the desktop version of Merom. Basically the difference between Merom and Conroe is the FSB. see the numbers below...

    DualCore adapter for p4c800-e dlx ??

    Hi, anyone know if there will be a dualcore adapter like the ASUS CT479 that supported dothan processor? Since Core Duo and Core Solo use an FCPGA6 (478-pin) pinout (but with a diffrent pin arrangement then pentium m, centrino mobos)..should be possible!!

    Got my P4 3.4E in today

    It also means that you probably have the 14 multi option ;) You will notice a huge performance boost just by running 14*243= 3.4Gig instead of the default 17*200=3.4Gig

    HEADS_UP INQUIRY OF P4-PRESCOTT (socket478) USERS

    Not sure what is holding your northy back but 3.6 is pretty good though! With vapo i've seen 3.0C@4.0...If its worth the upgrade is hard to say...I noticed major performance increase going from northwood to prescott mainly in heavy-duty multitasking sessions (increased multitasking abilities)...

    HEADS_UP INQUIRY OF P4-PRESCOTT (socket478) USERS

    lol yeah i agree...but i think that the lock free was implemented by intel and not by the mobo makers...they knew that it run hot and s478 was not really made for prescott..so all the mobo makers would have to redo the powerdesign specifikations but it would be to costly so instead they moved...

    HEADS_UP INQUIRY OF P4-PRESCOTT (socket478) USERS

    Yes lock free works with s478 also. Here is a breakdown of which ones work. 3.2 SL7B8 C0 stepping. works 3.2 D0 stepping does not work 3.2 E0 To few reports to draw any conclusion..most likely Dell got a bunch of s478 E0's as they are very had to find in a retailshop.... 3.4 D0 some...

    your temps are fine. I bet it's your psu! could also be your ram settings ofcourse (divider, timings...)

    Intel system finally here!

    water cooling will not help much if you are planning to max out the @presshot running the whole system with 18 on the 12v :D seriously, 18 on the 12v for a full @system rig with a 6600gt won't cut it for any higher stable oc.... Here is a better psu (Dual 12V total 30A) for your system that's...

    Midi-Fridge to Cyrocooler

    Sure the idea is not new but have anyone actually done it before?? don't think so...lol yeah i remember there was one guy who placed the whole mobo inside the fridge but that didnt work due to condensation. Anyway nice to see that it can be done! I know some have placed the watertank inside the...
