my p4?? is a what?

I was told that my "1.6a" is actually a "willy".So why does the max. clock speed show up as 2400 on programs like asus probe-----and if it is a "willy", what are the max. o/cing figures to run (safely?) at??? thx.

If it's a 1.6, why is it showing up as a 2.4? If you overclocked it there, you can be pretty sure it's a NW.

It's possible. I thought you said it was running at 2.4GHz?

no...he said that the max speed indicated by programs for that particular 1.6 was 2.4...but not running @ 2.4...

Wait a minute: the box said 1.6a? Are you telling that the official retail boxed P4 1.6a i snot always telling the truth?

I don't you what do you think guys, but a lot of people can be ripped for the Intel's profit! Because the shop pay as a 1.6a, not as a 1.6. Here the company that is doing extra money is Intel. This s*cks!

You got one in a box that said 1.6a?

If yours didn't come in a box, then I would be a little suspicious. Some computer stores try to "Cut costs" by selling inferior hardware, often not telling their customer what they are doing.

There are stories of Intel Pentium K6-2s and other such out there. Unfortunately, it's a buyer beware market at times.

I'm not saying that they did it intentionaly, but it wouldn't hurt to check and make sure everything else is EXACTLY what you ordered.
