Hot deal, too bad its not available on outpost

 

[AkumaX]

someone tell me how its 800fsb when its a 2.66ghz

 

[Mercenary]

that is a typo... But does anyone know if this CPU will run at 800 FSB???

well, the cpu is 20 x 133 = 2.66ghz

if it runs at 800fsb, that would be 20 x 200 = 4.0ghz!!!



i'm also finding conflicting reports on the existance of HT on this cpu; anyone know for sure if it has HT or not?

 

[AkumaX]

well, i guess 800fsb could be correct (if it was referring to the mobo) because the mobo supports 800fsb

its also using ddr400.

single channel.


yeah...

 

[BlackPear1]

No HT on the 505.

no HT link to pdf
even though it's supposed to have XD bit (as denoted by the J) , table says no?

 

[jpeyton]

HT would be nice.

 

[imported_Kensai]

Folding box?

 

[bleeb]

Does HT make a significant and noticable difference???

 

[Xyl3ne]

So who wants to pick me one up and ship it

 

[Bartokomus]

HT makes a sizable difference when it's turned off

 

[swatX]

if it was 200FSB it would have been a awesome deal. but considering its 133FSB , i would rather skip this deal

 

[Mavtek]

I'm confused, maybe I just don't know about P4, but this chip is actually a 533FSB wouldn't that mean it would be a 266FSB? Not 133?

 

[AkumaX]

p4's are quad pumped

533fsb = 133fsb x 4 (pc2100)

800fsb = 200fsb x 4 (pc3200)

 

[Mercenary]

its 533 fsb... retail cpu... Box is labeled 506+... I need to see if this will run on a 800 fsb... anyone know?

 

[Mavtek]

If it's a 506 it seems it would support EMT64 which is a pretty good bonus.

its multiplier locked at 20x. the only way you could do 800fsb (200fsb x 4 *quadpumped*) is if you did 20 x 200fsb = 4ghz!!

 

[Mavtek]

but will it do 20 x 166? that would be great with me.

 

[AkumaX]

20 x 166.666... = 3.333ghz, who knows? if you had good cooling, i think it'd be feasible

Just got back from Fry's in Wilsonville Oregon, CPU is a refurbished.

They have some Kingston Value RAM 3200 for 40 bucks (512 MB)
