I am, but it's a Dell. I'm pleased though, it's turned out to be a pretty good computer, in spite of having Winblows ME on it. Can't wait to see what it'll do with XP. The only downside is that I can't OC it, or tweak it very much, but that's what I have the Celery for.

That's still sweet what are your temperatures?
I was frowning at the NEC RAM - I have to cut the DRDRAM multiplier to 3X at any FSB over 120.
Temps are about 53C under a full load with the stock heatsink and ASII. I have a Swiftech MCX478 on the way, which should be in Monday. Hopefully I can break 2GHz with some stability after installing that.
I also just picked up a 1.2 Tualeron, so I don't know where my focus will go next.

Nope your not alone look at my sig.
Hoping for a overclock over 2000 but it won't post any higher than where i'm at for now. I don't know why yet!
load 46C
idle 13C after the system has been running over hours
seen it as low as 6C at start up
Bigger peltier needed!

The 72 watt peltier and water block!
My old system 700@1022 used this peltier with a water block and i was getting -13C at idle and around 12C underload.

I just put in a 1.5 Ghz P4 in my Abit TH7-II raid. Guess what, my Samsung ram will do 133 Mhz fsb at 4x. Yeehaw. I'll post some memory scores out of this world in the memory area. My 1.7 will post at 2266, but I need a better cooler for it to boot in to windows as well. Benchmarks with the [email protected] pretty much equals the [email protected]

Thanks
I'm just using the stock Intel retail cooler as it has been impossible for me to get a better cooler anywhere here in Denmark where I live. Most people here are getting Athlons, so there isn't really a market for socket 478 coolers here yet. Meanwhile, I'm running at 2025 Mhz and 135 Mhz ram/fsb and stable. Here's a SS of WCPUID. Cool stuff.

RE:
i love my P4, and wouldn't own anything but intel right now.
Although, AMD's problem of reliability is changing.(Heat Issues Mainly)
Anyways, i run 3 Pentium 4 comps
2 Dell P4's and a Abit TH7 RAID with a P41.7
My dells are geat and i used to have a program that unlocks the BIOS so you can up the FSB on the DELL
my dad gave it too me, he does the chipset architecture and other things for Dell
and my Abit comp is great too, i can run it at 1.7 @ 1.955 stable with a FSB of 115.
After tht, i can't get into windows, i think its a voltage problem and a cooling problem.
i have a Koolance kit coming from
http://www.epowerhousepc.com/[/URL]
i think there going to be a great place like this place.
and also a 550 watt PSP, so i can't wait to see what happens
if i find tht program to unlock the DELL's, ill put it on my FTP and
post the info to my FTP

Turbo: That's sweet...I knew the Samsung RDRAM will do the PC1066 dance, which is why I was frowning upon the NEC crap that I have (they puke after 960). I asked the vendor I bought it from if it was Samsung before I bought it, but then when I pulled the 3rd party brand label off, I found SyncMAX labels...
Oh well, I'll just have to get a couple new Sammie sticks later on...

hemi: Thanks. I picked up some advice given from one of the more experienced guys on this forum to somebody else asking what memory to get for a P4. I also saw a preview somewhere on PC1066 ram, and they used "hand-picked" Samsung PC800 DIMM's. I basically put 2 and 2 together, and where I live they're pretty much the cheapest ones too. Can't say I have any regrets about this choice Now I'm hoping for a Northwood 2 Ghz I can clock to 2.7 or something. Wouldn't that be sweet

Peltier i bought from ebay over year ago and water block is this one from DangerDen.com
they also sell peltiers and thats where i will be buying my bigger one. I also bought from them the waterblock for my video card but i haven't used it for the fact i applied large heatsinks and fan to the gpu and memory chips. The temps on my video card never go over 43C.
