Thats quite something

Thats Awesome...i wish my POS computer would go that fast...

**Kellicros** · January 26th, 2003

Impressive, I wish my Duron 800 can go that far.

Yes, the Northwood is quite the overclocker. It should scale all the way up to 5 Ghz before it's replaced with the Prescott, which will take it to 10 Ghz and beyond. Although the fastest P4 is clocked at 3.06 Ghz it's nowhere near its current potential. Intel even demonstrated overclocking a P4 4.1 Ghz (to around 4.6 Ghz) at IDF.

Hey guys what about athlon? oh well but over clocking is expensive isnt it? and intel well they are rich.

**Demigod** · January 27th, 2003

The Thoroughbred 'B' Athlons are pretty good overclockers, although no where near as flexible as the Northwood (at least the higher clocked ones).

What do you mean overclocking is expensive? Last time I checked it doesn't cost a dime

.

Violineb · January 27th, 2003

uh, I don't know how to over clock

why am I so dumb?

January 27th, 2003

T-bred cores (Lower Athlon XP 1600+ through 2000+ can hit 2.4 Ghz or so)

Pretty much anything beyond the 2400+ Don't overclock enarly as well. AMD needs to get its Barton core at soon.

But it won't happen. They are taking their time.

Violineb · January 27th, 2003

wha???? Is there an easy way to learn how to o/c? I wish I could o/c this comp til it fried

I don't think the Barton will help too much in that sense. It's just the Thoroughbred 'B' with double the L2 cache. I don't see how it'll lead to better overclocking. And, speaking personally, the Barton is overhyped (just as the Thoroughbred was). It's not going to be the miracle chip that saves AMD.

Violineb · January 27th, 2003

since when does AMD need saving?

Heh, I guess you haven't heard of their recent financial troubles. AMD is not doing nearly as well as they had been for the past couple of years (when they were able to keep up with Intel's fastest chips) and the Barton is not going to change that.

Depends on How you look at it. An

A Barton chip on the same Mhz of the normal t-bred core has about a 300 PR difference give or take. So the chips will definately be able to be clocked down and thus clocked up ^^

Bahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

i will never buy that *rap ever again...!

AMD is the best...

just look at the price i think i had to sale my house to buy it... hehehe

Lol, ANY cpu is "good" overclocker when you use vapochill or prommie

Thats no what he meant, Intel chips can reach high performance ratings than AMD chips on the same cooling.

**_E_** · January 27th, 2003

Actually, what i find interesing about the new Intel processors is the Hyper threading (HT). Splits the chipset into two virtual processing units (IIRC) and processes the data more effeciently. That feature might give more advantage to Intel over AMD, other than the processing speed. but again , i might be wrong here...

>What do you mean overclocking is expensive? Last time I checked it doesn't cost a dime

Last time I checked some guy had about $500's worth of fans and about $300's worth of heat sinks.

It also gives them more stability.

:confused: I dont understand. Since when was overclocking requiring money? I alwasy overclock my video card and System Bus andi never payed a penny. :confused:

In what sense does it give more stability? :confused:

You can overclock with stock HSFs. Thus costing you no more than usual.

>It also gives them more stability.

Where did this crap come from? Can you back this up?
