Your thoughts on this CPU

for an x86 I think it's going to suck. If it was a 1ghz alpha or sparc maybe not. The ram for that is less than desirable too at 333mhz. Also the harddrive that comes with it is 5400rpm? I see way too many bottle necks in it. If your going to need alot of parallel processing, you might want to consider an alpha array, or a sparc array.

Exactly.

Somethings wrong with my DualSATA2. I have to set it to 274 to get 220 HTT. Once it booted 50%, 200=100 HTT. I had that chip(almost.) I though I would set a underclocking record, but the 50% thing was just a fluke. It's back to the 5:4 BIOS to CPUz ratio. :( 
Perfect for the bad ICM of my winnie. :cry: 
What is wrong?

I'd sell the Winnie and buy a Conroe, the Conroe'll just be a tad slower but will make up for the loss with DDR2 ;) .
