New--What P-4 based CPU do you have?

[johan851]

I have a P4 640. Not a very good one, though.

 

[Aphex_Tom_9]

my other rig is a 478 2.8E @ 3.1

 

[Audioaficionado]

You left out Xeons (P4 core based) and those of us who might have more than one P4 based rig.

P-M/Dothans are PIII based.

Ah, looks like I can include my entry:

My only Intel box is a DELL PRECISION 530 Workstation with dual 1.7ghz Xeon processors(400mhz).

I'd like to build an Intel rig in the near future that could get some of the remaining QMD's.

 

[crimedog]

have an 830 that's doing an easy 4.2 but want to trade for a 6xx

I was thinking that too. B/C my main rig is xeon's.

I currently run a P4 3.2E Prescott at 3.920 lapped to a luster with Zalman 7700cu AS5. The CPU is lapped...not the Zalman. The Zalman was perfect out of the box.

I will be upgrading to Conroe as soon as the 8MB Cache version becomes available.

Might as well add the new line of CPU's coming out too.

Yeah, after I made the poll, I thought about Xeons, but I had already used 10 categories and that's max. For the people with Xeons as their primary rig, just post in the thread with what you have.

 

[Shelnutt2]

2xLV 1.6 Prestonia Xeon's. 150*16=2400.

 

[Jame Gumb]

Northwood.....what a thoroughbred champ.......... I will miss my Northwood, and I hope it goes to a good home when I move to 775

 

[cooliscool]

NW, C, Socket 478.

 

[Ssetre]

2.0 Mobile at When I get it running I'll let you know.
2.4b P4 at 2448 WOO 48 whole extra mhz.

What's a safe limit on the PCI bus anyways?

P-M/Dothans are PIII based.

Xeons are either NW or Prescott based.

 

[{PMS}fishy]

I Picked PD, but I have s478 NWs, and 6xxs too.

 

[infinitevalence]

I feel lonely only one Extreme Edition Not like it matters to much, i think im going to replace it with a 820 some time this or next mth.

hi'
everyone talk about the ol' northy ...
what about the ol' prescott?
for now, running a P4C 2.6, OC to 3.25, then got down to 3.06 stable, but definitly, as I don't have enough money to think about a serious upgrade, meaning MB cpu ram PCI express etc ...

I'll go very soon for one of the last prescott 3.2, and this will make me wait until intel makes something really different from now.
5x series and 6x series and even dual core are only marketing stuff, proof is the P830 is alright once passed 3.6ghz :huh: and the 5x is still prescott ...
I have been told that the new MB have better circuitry, may be, but if it is only to be able to run a cpu that will be old in 2 years, no thanks!
without counting the investment in such an upgrade :huh:

so, being patient would be the best to do!
but I noticed that it was not so present in the heart of an OClocker

ps; nothing against any cpu, but this new generation is "just a try" for me.

 

[what]

Skt 478 Prescott.

 

[veryhumid]

my EE has treated me extremely well so far, but i see a 6xx in my future...

 

[i686]

Skt 478 Prescott.

hi'
I don't really understand your flame toward prescott on skt 478, or may be you burned it trying to overclock it too far

skt 478 or 775 it's still a prescott, and for those who think that getting a 5x serie is far better, just take a look at some recent benchmark :lol:
1mb of L2 cache and everybody jump 'houraaa' ...
this extra mb slow the whole thing down unless you push it to the limit ...

I put a bet on year 2007!
there we will have something new, not only dual core but something that works better that all what we have seen until now.

I have seen a 540 with 1gb ram, nothing to be impressed :huh:

definitly waiting for a proc that brings a big change, as the PCI express did, or the dual channel ram did too!

so, before to jump on a new MB ddr2 and so on, I'll wait

830 all tha way
