Posted December 23, 200419 yr Was a P3.4C Northwood socket 478 produced? The 3.2C seems to be the max. In my searches I am finding the processors that appear to be these are actually Prescotts.
December 24, 200419 yr It would indeed appear that Pentium 4's clocked at 3.4GHz are universally Prescott core processors (part number RK80546PG0961M). Must you have a P4C? Prescott was a dissappointing improvement (supposed to closer to being P5 ...) but its not all bad ... -The Gavster Three students died that year at the academy; one was executed, one was killed in a training accident, and one died of natural causes, for a knife to back will naturally kill anyone. -RA Salvatore Like to IRC?

December 28, 200419 yr Author Yes, because I have a set of PC4000 (DDR500) ram and an IC7-MAX3 which is not being complimented by a P3.0E processor. Well, at least not on my platform as a whole. I limited my cooling investment to water and since the overclocked prescott's amperage consumption is so high its also calling for a new PS.
December 29, 200419 yr A 400MHz speed jump isn't as significant as it used to be, particularly within the same processor family. If you're watercooling, you may be able to get that 3.4 Northwood via overclocking the existing component, though. -The Gavster Three students died that year at the academy; one was executed, one was killed in a training accident, and one died of natural causes, for a knife to back will naturally kill anyone. -RA Salvatore Like to IRC?
