Default Intel 915x, 925x: LGA, DDR2, PCI-E Solution

We were lucky to manage to get our hands on all of the avaliable products to fully evaluate the new Intel solution. 15 CPUs (Including 6 LGA Solutions), All of NVIDIAs PCI-E lineup, some Love from ATis, and also the 2 Intel Chipsets. What did we think? Well......

The fears surrounding the operation of the socket itself are unfounded, at least in this reviewers eyes, my cack-handed penchant for mishandling hardware not troubling the new socket one bit.

Looking forward, a drop in DDR-II prices and mass market retail availability of PCI Express graphics cards, alongside their AGP counterparts, may sway some people towards the delights an ICH6-equipped board will hold. Until then, if I were you, I'd be looking to stick with what I've got.

quote : "Our overclocking experience with the new LGA775 based Pentium 4s, was as we expected, fantastic. With the thermals we were observing early on in testing, we expected to hit new heights with the Pentium 4 using standard air cooling. The following tests were performed using Intel's stock LGA775 heat sink that came with our test kit.
We were able to achieve 3.9GHz stable on the P4 EE 3.4GHz chip and 4.05GHz stable on the P4 560 3.6GHz chip. This again was achieve with standard air cooling on an open air bench setup. The Extreme Edition chip's core voltage was set to 1.675V and the P4 560 was set to 1.475V, to achieve full stability and the scores we took above with Sandra. "

overclocking : easy 4 ghz on air with standard heatsink...
4.5-4.7 ghz on phase change anyone?
and till slower then a 2.7 a64 probably?

and extremely costly, all of them...


aaand unavailable till at least september...
THE way to go is socket 754 for performance and availability and
payability...

"fantastic" is not 400-500Mhz OC

fantastic is 1000-1200Mhz like the 2.4 hitting 3.6ghz.

Or, 2A hitting 3.3 Ghz,
XP1700+ hitting 2.2 to 2.4 Ghz

With air cooling only.

From what I gathered; LGA775 + PCIe + DDR2 = waste of money = intangeble increase in performance over current Northwood + good Vcard + Good PC4000.

OC in 400-500mhz without the high thermal output or a 40C load temp at default Vcore using $15 HSF = fantastic

This is really the fun time ......

Go ahead ,,,, jump into the pit with the tiger.... I'll be right behind you ....... to close the gate.

I'd rather wait for the P4 M. :grr:

Granted, Presoctt at current S478 overclocks a bit better than Northwood. But, bench mark has been done that scaling over 4 Ghz is still behind Northwood.

Intel sounds like kicking the dead horse one more time. Unless, thermal output is reduced and board socket for repeated installation is proven reliable .... I'll be watching on the side line.

max 10-20% OC possible due to the chipset detecting overclocking & preventing any higher.

amd locks multis, intel stop fsb OCing and locks multi's (since the beginning)...
it's going to get difficult.
