Does the 775 generate as much heat as the Prescott?

I have a P4 3.0 Prescott. I know that these CPUs are notorious for the amount of heat they generate.

How does the new generation of 775 P4 compare?

Are they still based on the Prescott core or do they use a different one?
 
There are several new cores that intel has for socket 775, and they all put out a lot of heat, and they are all based on the netburst tech. We are waiting for sometime next year for something good from Intel.

The 775 packaging was reported to offer lowered power consumption, and thus lowered amounts of waste heat. The primary P4 (775) core available is still the Prescott, and it is still a miniature space heater inside your system. The total reduction in waste heat turned out to be much less than was anticipated.


:disgust:

 
Read my sig..... Its a real intel quote ....

Anyways Prescotts/ smithfields are hot get if you need intle now get a presler or P-M.
