No, Cedar Mill and Presler will be the last generation of NetBurst. In other words, they are still netburst based. Conroe will be the first P-M based desktop processor, and it won't be around until late next year.

Deleron? Is that short for DeCeleron?

Celeron-D coined Deleron. High end Celerons are always around the $100 mark for a retail boxed kit.

Oc results are great. i mean 5ghz air stock cooler is phonemonal, but it also shows why netburst should die. ther is absolutely no reason you should have to co to 5 ghz to be competitive with a fx57 at 2.6. that's insaine. are yuo telling me the amd64 has 2x more ipc or 1/2 the pipeline length as a netburst, becaue if it;s true, the netburst formula is pretty weak.

Whats your point? Clock speed is more or less only a reference point. Itanium Madison at 1.5Ghz/9MB has better FP than a 2.6Ghz Opteron. However, that point is moot because itanium will probably never see 2.5Ghz for years and Opteron will never see 5Ghz for years to come.

OMG, that brings back memories. I used to sell "pretested" overclocked Celeron 366 chips - sold a pair to Moto at TheTechZone and he did a review of them. Didn't know who he was until he told me "check out this review." He had a pair of them on a BP6 and I think got about 600MHz out of the CPUs.

there were those few 486 SX 25s back in high school (late 90's) which I pushed up to 50 MHz with no extra cooling whatsoever. :) )

OMG, me and Nowhereman (for those who remember the permanently banned) did that once and it ran for a while, then we noticed it was locked up. Dead.

I believe it was ME who coined that term back when I was posting about my Deleron 320 2.4GHz@3.6GHz on an Asus P4P800 Deluxe with a Thermalright XP-120 and Panaflo fan.

I wonder how good of a graphics card you need for this to be the choke point instead of the gfx card. Since I'm a poor college student who can't afford a uber video card id probably not even see a difference between a 100$ celeron and a 1000$ P4XE since the gfx card is gonna be the bottleneck anyways. Especially if this thing can clock andything over 4gz. 512KB of chache don't slow you down that much, althought the slow FSB might

Comparing EPIC and X86-ISA/K8 architectures (which by the way are absolutely incompatible) doesn't have much sense, either.

It wasnt supposed to... that was the point he was trying to make.
