Tidewater Case
This looks like a working .09um prescott?!?!

Inside the Tidewater Case

Higher speed Prescott around 5Ghz?
Look at Intels genius cooling solution .... cools the ram and the vid card with two 80mm fans ....

Look at this beast!

Closer look inside looks like DDR-II? or 32-bit Rambus?

Enjoy, I did 😀 HERE is the link to the main page.


UPDATE

Posted this a wile back, yet still people are confused about Intels new plans and there new core "prescott" on there .09um process. This Info is NOT Facts some are and some are rumors 😀 After lots of posts of people saying this couldnt be prescott I found this interesting link:

http://www.zdnet.co.jp/news/0202/28/idf_desktop.html

It says in english:

In addition, the Intel 2003 years, throws the Prescott which is produced with 0.09 micron process. The Prescott micro architecture of Pentium 4 seems that becomes something which adds several fee char to the base.

Furthermore, presently in only field of server and work station available hyper threading (Hyper-Threading) technology, even with the desktop PC is made available. The Intel the Prescott, for the end user is the plan that it advances the optimization to hyper threading technology of application to the time where release it is done.

In the keynote presentation it introduces the Prescott on-board PC which is operational at the laboratory of the Intel as a demonstration. Clock frequency was operational with the 4gHz.

Prescott setup!

Was used in demonstration the experimental model of the Prescott which The clock indicatory tool which moves with the experimental model of Prescott loading shows the 4gHz Furthermore it introduces the concept platform of the desktop PC which aims toward the sale of 2003 years. This concept model being something which becomes reference of the desktop PC which each vendor ships to 2003 year latter halves, draws up the actual platform with the IDF of the fall this year. The result is offered to the OEM vendor.

Prescott @ 4Ghz

Prescott models in Q2-2003 will feature:

- 4.0GHz+
- Single Configuration Desktop CPU
- Hyper-Threading technology
- Micro-architectural enhancements
- 1MB L2 cache
- 667MHz FSB / Later move to 800Mhz FSB
- 90nm manufacturing process (.09um)
- Close to 100m transistors
- Data Prefetch
- Duel Channel (DC) DDR333 / Later move to DC DDR-II 400Mhz

Xeon Models in Q3/Q4-2003 will feature:

- 4.0-5.0GHz+
- Duel Configuration Workstation CPUs
- Hyper-Threading technology
- Micro-architectural enhancements
- 1MB L2 cache
- 667Mhz FSB / Later move to 800MHz FSB
- 90nm manufacturing process (.09um)
- Close to 100m transistors
- Data Prefetch
- Duel Channel (DC) DDR333 / Later move to DC DDR-II 400Mhz

Xeon MP "Gallatin" Models in Q1/Q2-2003 will feature:

- 2.0-2.6GHz+
- 4 and 8 way Configuration Server CPUs
- Hyper-Threading technology
- Micro-architectural enhancements
- 256k/512k L2? / 1MB and 2MB L3 (ondie) configurations
- 400Mhz? FSB / Later move to 533MHz? FSB
- 130nm manufacturing process (.13um)
- Close to 50m transistors?
- Data Prefetch?
- Duel Channel (DC) DDR266 / Later move to DC DDR-II 400Mhz?

The Xeon MP is rumored to hit 2.6Ghz in Q1-2003 to counter the sledgehammer 4-8 way configurations. And the 2MB L3 ondie cache boost will do good for competition. Hope that made people think a tad more about intel "falling behind" 😀

Intel still have full support for Rambus as shown in their latest roadmap at least till next year. Prescott will have support for Rambus as well as for DDR memory. Intel will introduce Springdale, its next generation "Integrated GFX" chipsets, following on from its current Brookdale chipsets. The dual channel 850 Rambus chipset will be "migrated" to Springdale during the first half of next year, ready for the introduction of the Prescott products. The 850E chipset, currently called only the 850E Springdale follows on from the current chipset, while Intel will rationalize its 845 series, and produce Springdale 845E and 845G products.

Springdale 850E Chipset (Performance Desktop)

Northwood/Prescott support
533/667Mhz FSB
RDRAM Support
Integrated Graphic core
AGP 8x
Serial ATA
Gigabit Ethernet
CSA (Communication Streaming Architecture) port
Availability : Q2 2003


Springdale 840E/G Chipset (Mainstream Desktop)

Northwood/Prescott support
533/667Mhz FSB
Dual and Single Channel DDR333 support
Integrated Graphic core
AGP 8x
Serial ATA
Gigabit Ethernet
CSA (Communication Streaming Architecture) port
Availability : Q2 2003

More great news!!! keeping mPGA478 socket still and RDRAM! I guess it is 667Mhz fsb now .... this is looking great for Intel!

That heatsink is a bit over the top, don't you think? They are using the side of the case to help cooling.

EDIT: Good find though. 🙂
 
Anyone know if the Prescott is compatible with the D850MV motherboard? It's Intel i850 chipset 478 pin with RDRAM.
 
SSXeon5, where do you come up with this stuff? Are you just guessing?

Those are pics of a supercooled 3GHz Northwood box in a very small form factor (smaller than mATX supposedly). This is not a Prescott box, there is no DDR-II memory, and it's definitely not running at 5GHz.

EDIT: Btw, what do you say now that Prescott might not have an 800MHz FSB like you were claiming in this thread? 😉

I never said this was hard facts .... do u see the question marks behind everything, btw they look like this (?) 😀 As for the 800Mhz fsb, anandtech "claimed" it and I was mearly taking there advice becasue most of the time they know there stuff. And BTW they first tidewater case was the 3GHz northwood the bottom boxes could be any cpu ... i was speculating that they could be early samples of prescott and looking at the date of the sites info there is no way it can be. And why do u have to bring up the 800Mhz fsb post???

If you have a problem with me just say so ... i am just giving harmless info for all of us to look at and say "ahh thats cool" ..... its not DDR-II its acually 32-bit rambus, I also said "Closer look inside looks like DDR-II? or 32-bit Rambus?" I was not sure ... but the closest thing it resembles is 32-bit rambus.

also, its not a good find, its a REFIND!

Sorry didnt know .... figures ... im always late with info 😉

SSXeon, I have no problem with you at all. It's just a little weird that you would even guess that these were Prescott boxes, since there's no such evidence to suggest such a guess. The same applies to the 5GHz number you threw out. If you have good reason to say it's a Prescott or that it's running at 5GHz, then by all means say so. But it doesn't seem you have good reason...

Well if there is working samples of the clawhammer and sledgehammer, with intels .09um process coming nicely there surly a prescott sample .... i figured this COULD be it .... never said it WAS. Here is the quote from vr-zone I saw:


Tide Water is a computer of small form factor, smaller than the Serial Micro ATX standard and will integrate a new power regulator, thermal solution and case. Intel will develop the product next year and debut the ready-made products in 2004. Tidewater will first be based on the 0.13 micron Northwood that will run at a speed of 3.xGhz. It will be based on the next generation Prescott processor based on 0.09 micron during second half of 2003 that may reach at a speed grade of 5Ghz or more. The cooling used is passive with two 80mm fans blowing across the system thereby cooling the huge CPU cooler with copper core, the memories, the chipset as well as the hard drive.

Figured when the 2Ghz P4's were out they already had 3.5Ghz Northwood samples at IDF and I figured by now there could be prescott samples ....

You're assuming Intel's .09u process is coming along nicely, when all they've been able to show us is some SRAM. AMD had a full .13u CPU running at least a year ago, and they still don't have the T-breds in full production yet.

No offense, but it sounds more like you just don't want to bear the thought of Intel falling behind again.

No offense, but he could be thinking the reverse from your post 😉
 
This is to help with the confusion of the future P4/P5? Cores from Intel. And its looking like a great competition with the Sledgehammer and Clawhammer with the future specs and demos. Good read 😀

Thanks for the info SSXeon5. Problem is I dont speak chinese 😀

I dont know why you guys are bashing him for posting this. If there were rules against thread crapping in this forum I think you guys just dumped the motha-load on this thread 😱
 
Whatever that thing is, it looks like it dissipates a lot of heat, and that over-the-top Heatsink looks pretty impractical. There's a good reason why that case is on its side - with that giant hunk of finned metal on the CPU it would probably stress the clips too much and break off if the case was standing up. Even with those big clips on the side, and the fact that it must be made of aluminum, that Heatsink is probably pretty heavy. An all-copper HSF for that CPU would be a near impossibility seeing as it would weigh like triple that one.
 
Interesting...I do like Intels Heatsinks designs better than AMD which seems to throw any hunk of metal on there cpu's. But there is a bit of hype here as neither of these cpu's have seen the light of day.
 
4Ghz for the precott seems not right... at 2-3q 2002. #Ghz end this year... then 1ghz in half a year... interesting if true.

Thanx man 😀 But im used to it ... any Intel thing i post it gets sh*t on well going on 2 years now 😀

Well the P4 is hitting 3.06GHz (533MHz fsb) in Q4-2002 and prescott is on the new core (.09um) and seeing that the Netburst core can hit 10Ghz .... i dont see how this is hard to see.

Hey, I think Hammer will compete quite nicely with a 3.2 GHz northwood. and Sledgehammer should be able to compete with Prescott.

(Funny Xeon, how we have the same Power supply, CPU frequency and Mobo )
 
Why's everyone dissing the heatsink? It loost alright to me. It looks like it's got a copper running all the way through it. Also, I don't think weight will be a big deal with this heatsink since it will no doubt be screw on rather than clip on.
