very true. could be related to burn in or something. Look at posts 28 and 33 to find out more about the broken pins.

People are very good at finding cause and effect where they want it to be present, or when it even appears to be remotely plausible.
Not to say that he's lying or anything (OPB is an overclocker who would never, ever lie about anything), but the higher overclock could well be attributed to something as small as a better cascade head mount then the one which he had before.
It's a miracle in any case

not trying to interupt, but i have a p4 2.8 northwood that the far righthand corner pin bent, it was about to fall off the last time i put it in the machine.. Do you think it will affect performance much if any with it missing?
Not trying to break thread up, but i figured some of you may know

go find a pin diagram for your proc. If you had an AMD, I'd link you to one, but since its Intel, and I haven't been to the intel site in years, I cant help you there.
