A mobo is a motherboard

Hope they put one with the 875p chipset in but they are a bit pricey.

LOL, the 2.4 GHz is the slowest P4 you can get atm

The 2.4 is slowest but I've read in some reviews that the 2.4 is the best overclockers of all the Intel cpu's

What the futhest u can clock a 2.8Ghz

goku · Post by **goku** » 29 Apr 2004, 22:52

Mine is overclocked to 3.2Ghz with only stock cooling.I guess with water cooling you up it quite a bit more.It also depends on the mobo if it will be able to take punch.

So true... and to think, about a year ago it was considered pretty decent! Still, nothing wrong with the P4 2.4 (You can't even buy Northwood ones anymore; the only flavour distributors like Rectron and Sahara sell is the Prescott.)
