I just bought the above cpu as I combo package here in Northern Californis, this CPU according to the lable it has 1mb of L2 cache.

Is this a good o/c cpu, has anybody bought this?

Thanks,

It also has no HT, and is a 533bus. Start it up and see how it does.

Loren Blair, do u have benchmarks of 3DMarks and Sandra, to see if 2.4a prescott o/ced to 3.6 does the same or better than a 2.4c o/ed to 3.6 (fsb obviously is different for 2 chips and also HT presense) tho timings on 2.4a must be real tight...
