bobad said:Don't remember for sure, but I think one was supposed to run at 3.2Ghz. Crank it up to 1.3v, and it should go pretty fast, wouldn't you think?

Based on the comment however, it would seem to me that the rumored power reduction is due to a chip relayout and that every Prescott produced at that stepping and beyond will see the power reduction.bobad said:We not on the same page. I assumed (apparently incorrectly) that a reduction in voltage was due to a change in chip design or in the manufacturing process, not simply grading existing chips.
LOL You Intel guys and your wimpy Vcore changes. It seems like most people don't touch the Vcore or they change it very little. I occasionally run my 1.45V Mobile @ 2V But a low temperature Prescott sounds like another good candidate at OC'ing. The more good CPU's, the betterbobad said:Don't remember for sure, but I think one was supposed to run at 3.2Ghz. Crank it up to 1.3v, and it should go pretty fast, wouldn't you think?
