I've built another new Prescott system and have been doing 'burn in' using seti@home (of course)
It's got the Asus P4P800E Deluxe mobo
Sapphire 9600 w/ 256megs
1G PC3500 ram
Asus WiFi on mobo
Black "Ancient" case
Black lite on DVD rom
Black lite on DVD R/RW
Black Floppy drive
two SATA 160G drives using onboard iNtel RAID (mirrored)
Black 21" Viewsonic monitor :)

Currently running @ 3.3Ghz (2.8E chip)

It's done 21 wu's in the past 24 hours. With Hyperthreading active I set Seti Driver for two simultaneous processes.
Here are some recent WU times:

2004 Oct 11 12:50pm 45.243,17.81 1.443 cp1.mshome.net 1:57
2004 Oct 11 12:38pm 14.237,23.7 0.411 cp1.mshome.net 2:38
2004 Oct 11 10:52am 9.902,26.43 4.089 cp1.mshome.net 1:57
2004 Oct 11 10:01am 9.697,27.88 4.156 cp1.mshome.net 1:58
2004 Oct 11 08:56am 9.466,28.55 4.197 cp1.mshome.net 1:58
2004 Oct 11 08:02am 9.659,23.17 3.59 cp1.mshome.net 1:56

(heh - in case you didn't notice that's 6 WU's in less than 5 hours) ;)

Mine was a bit noisy and doesn't seem to cool well. So I got a Zalman cnps700a-cu.

Runs much quieter and cooler...got a better OC. :D

hyperthreading gives you "dual processors" and 1 meg on chip cache is really nice for seti ;)
also the overclocked fsb - another good thing for seti

HP for Hewlett Packard?
Only way you can overclock those AFAIK is via a special program running in windows.
See if clock gen covers your PC
