What does "C" mean?

For example, Pentium 4 2.40<b>C</b> GHz.

C is for cookie, that's good enough for me.

Oh, cookie, cookie, cookie starts with C.

Okay, seriously though:
A = 4x100Mhz = 400MHz FSB
B = 4x133MHz = 533MHz FSB
C = 4X200MHz = 800MHz FSB

Really though, how lazy must you be? Go to <A HREF="http://www.intel.com" target="_new">http://www.intel.com</A>, click on the "Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor" link located on the right side of the screen (it's the one with the cute little picture of the Pentium 4 chip) and read. Right there in the speeds available it breaks them down by bus speed, and this includes the C, B, or A in the speed ratings whenever these ratings overlap. The information is right there and easy to find.

I liked your first response better...

and just to make the thread even more informative

Intel chips are quad pumped, thus you multiply the FSB x PUMP RATE to yield PR BULLSHIT. The yields are 400, 533, 800.

The ath xp chips are double pumped, thus the yields are 266, 333, 400.

The functional difference is that the memory bandwidth is higher on the intel chips.

There are no pumps, that term was invented by a 12 year old idiot/AMD fanatic/WWF fanatic who wants to get "pumped up". He thought it sounded cool to call his AMD a "double pumped" processor, like a pump action, double barrel shotgun.

Quad Data Rate is the technology used to pass 4 bits of information per data trace on one cycle. And the words Quad Data Rate actually MEAN something, the work Quad refers to 4, and the word DATA refers to bits of information, and the word RATE means the amount of work done over a given time. So it's easy for anyone with a brain to interpret the proper name "Quad Data Rate" as "4x the transfer rate".

who cares ? , don´t be so aggressiv!!!!

 

[dwellman]

at close to 105w max thermal dissapation, it does not mean "cool"

Intel giveth and Microsoft taketh away.

I care only because stupidity is contagious.

Look at the common phrase "I couldn't care less". It means that you care so little, it would be impossible for you to care less. Yet most people say "I could care less". This is nonsense, because it implies that there are other things you care less about, when really you're trying to say you don't care at all.

Eventually we will all be idiots if this type of thing keeps up.

I thought pumps were shoes without the heels.

D00D, I almost failed 10th grade english for that! I refered to Rebock Pumps in a paper, and the teacher saw the word pumps regarding shoes and figured a girl must've wrote it, then tried to fail me!

You know what? I think you're right! I've already got a list of people to quarantine! Or we're all doomed!

 

[HardWareBoss]

OH No not the ole quarantine list!!!!

 

[stealthbig]

Crashman I think it's funny that you are on your own little crusade against the "pumped" term. Must be growing bored in the forums, eh?

 

[Crashman]

Not really that, but some newbie will come in and ask how the pumps work, if their mechanical, and what do do when they wear out!
