That's actually quite amusing. A fast cpu that won't work with fast ram.

amd 2800+ only 10% slower than p4 3.06ghz and it costs half the price. y would you even bother with the p4?

btw, HT does jack all when your at full CPU load anyway

Wait...? By then Prescott will destroy Hammer. Rock, Paper, Snippers anyone...?

As I recall, Chipzilla is having a hard time with the .09 micron process, pushing the Prescott back a bit further than expected. Ahh heck, who cares anymore? We're all relying on the next best thing, let's focus on what's here today. Why don't we wait for the k-9 to come out, or Tejas? Geez...

mine made a quiet pop sound... but i felt it pop into place.

cant believe intel could allow their own HSFs to have such a little thing that could be fixed in its design!

I'm still not 100% sure where to squeeze. I did where the picture said and nothing happened.

So did I. No popping. I guess we got working units?
