Want a P-III cD0 700 CPU?

[batboy]

Ok, so technically the only cD0 stepping P-III chips currently available are the 866, 933, and 1000 MHz processors. These are all 133 FSB chips and the rest of the P-III lineup is being dropped from production (a moment of silence, please). Is this really the end of the wonderful P-III 700? Did Intel really kill one of their best chips?

WELL, isn't the new cD0 933 really a new and improved version of the ol' beloved 700 CPU. Look at the multiplier of 7X...same as the 700E. My guess is that the cD0 933 will be even better than the famous 700. If I decide to do another processor upgrade before going to the P-4, I'll either get one of these cD0 933 or better yet, the P-III 1 gig slug with it's 7.5X multiplier.

I would do my slobbering over a 1 gig, ... as 133 fsb chips to begin with, these things overclocked are really going to stress things.

With the 1 gig, which you would hope to get up to 1.2, anyway, you will need 160+ fsb. Memory?? PCI ?? You sure need higher fsb's and dividers than my ol' bx6 R2 can manage, at least.

Without a mobo, I could never get over 1.12.
