I bought the 2400 to be a christmass present for my boss's kids so I had planned to swap the 2.2 out and put my 1.6 in there, was also hoping that it might overclock some, well, it did, quite nicely too, I am over 3ghz now 😀 so if you have a lesser overclock currently, you might want to give the 2.2 from the 2400 a test run.

Mine was an "SL6PL" listed as "Box or Retail" on Intel's spec page.

I wish I had gotten the DVD drive and the better hard drive but I was uncertain of the double $100.00 rebates being honored.

Gonna have to look for a hot deal for a cheap DVD with a black faceplate.

So, what are you going to do with yours?

Even without the AGP it is a great christmass gift for basic users, like my boss's kids, if my parents didnt already have a decent computer this would have been perfect for them.

It was a tough call with the risky rebates but I figured I could work that out and probably would have justified the $300.00 price if it came to that, glad it didnt though 😀

I want to hear from some of you who bought this system, are you going to use it? gift it? part it out? throw it on the pile with all the other hot deals you dont have time to play with?????

 
What HSF combo are you running?

I have a P4 2.4B @ 2.7 and run retail hsf setup and I have 3 case fans in my case.

I am using the retail HSF that came with the 1.6

On a P4S333 with 145mhz fsb and 4:5 memory ratio and 1.6 volts just because that is what the 1.6@2.3 was using

Ran some sandra benchmarks and all the tests were just slightly lower than the 3.2 ref system, my memory bandwidth was 2657/2649 MB/s
 
Slacker, I bought the 2400 also 🙂

But let me get this straight, you took the 2.2g proc out of the Dell box, right? Stuck it in another box? Or is this all done in the Dell computer? I wouldn't have thought the Dell system could overclock worth a damn, so I'm pretty sure you have it in another mobo, but just making sure.

Since these chips are so overclockable, though, is the mobo that I'm getting capable of any OCing?

PS - I haven't OCed anything since my Duron600@1050 🙂

I took the 2.2 out of the 2400 and put it in my own computer that has an Asus P4S333 motherboard (awesome for overclocking)

I havent checked but I dont think there is any way to overclock with the 2400's motherboard.
