I want to get a P4 CPU 2.4, that is the SL6RZ, or the SL6EF. I want to overclock it, so I think these are the two I need to try and find. I have read that they are the better ones to OC'. If anyone has any info on a place online where you can get one of these, PLMK. I would be grateful if I could find one. Thanks in advance!!!!

I did this thanks to Mrdudeman!!! LOL!
Thanks man!!!

ExcaliberPC.com sells a guaranteed SL6EF 2.4b. I ordered one earlier in the week and it should be here tomorrow. Can't wait.

Also, lots of people are getting that same stepping from Newegg when they order the 2.4b retail but it is still luck of the draw.

Does anyone know if the 2.6 or the 2.66 have a code like the SL6EF. Just in case I wanted to get one of those instead. I should have posted this in first message, but was not thinking. Thanks Again!!!

the reason that the S-spec code on the 2.4B (SL6EF) is a significant differentiator of cpu quality is that it denotes that it has the latest hardware revision (stepping), in this case that revision is "C1." ALL 2.6/2.66 P4 cpu's are C1 stepping chips; the idea is that you'll probably achieve the same performance on a 2.4B C1 chip as you would with one of the higher-speed/more-expensive cpu's.

Just the usual $0.02:)
