There will be a lot of overclocking going on with these P4 northwoods in the months ahead thanks to these mainboards that allow you to change FSB without bringing the PCI/AGP out of spec.

But there also must be some sort of CPU testing software, just running quake3 for an hour I doubt classifies your overclocked cpu truely tested.

The testing software needs to test every single instruction on the CPU. MMX,MMX2,SSE,SSE2,FPU,INT.

I found a test program, but I don't know how much it will cost. It's called toolstar. It tests out all the instruction sets MMX,MMX2,SSE,SSE2,FPU,INT. But it may cost a fortune, won't know till monday since they don't have pricing on their website.

Can you download a demo of it, or do you have to buy it before use?

My case has so many fans that it hovers above the ground :eek: .

You can download it, but the demo is very limited. It tests out far more than just the cpu, it tests everything.
Companies such as Dell use this software. it costs $399
