Hiya
I have been given a P4 Prescott 3.2GHz to eval by work.
No OVERCLOCKING is happening.
I have put it in my 2nd PC which as a ASUS P4P800 mobo with latest bios,
that had a P4 3GHz Northwood.
Couple of things i have noticed about the Prescott, the temp is bloody high.
When idle its 61C / 141F, when 50percent loaded its 69C/ 156F, when
100percent loaded its up to 71C / 159F. All recored with ASUS Probe.
Also i find it slower than a P4 3GHz Northwood, i run SETI on it, and when
it says a unit will take 4 hours 55 mins, but the Northwood would do this in
half the time.
What is the best chipset to run a prescott on, intel 865 or 875 ??
Is ther prescott supposed to run this high Temp ??
Is there any settings i should make to bios to speed it up (non -
overclocking) ??
Any one else had the same problem ??
Running on WIN XP PRO SP1
Thx
