go with the 2500+ rather than the 2600+, because the 2500+ uses the barton core which is alot cooler and i heard the 2500+ is really overclockable!

You mean like a 533MHz FSB P4 is actually 133MHz quad clocked?Originally posted by bob_the_alien@1 November 2003 - 22:07
The Barton does have the option of DDR FSB, which is nice, I upgraded recently to the 2500 Barton, and I really saw a speed increase. Only thing I don't like about the Barton, is promoted like its a 333 mhz front side bus.
While it is being pumped at double the rate to give 333 mhz fsb, its really only 166. I think they should mention that, on websites you purchase it from.
Just one of my pet pevs. sorry.![]()
And ALL the 266MHz FSB chips are DDR 133MHz clocks?
etc, etc, etc.
They are all like that, come back when you know what you are talking about.![]()
@Kunal, you can also get 2600+ Barton chips now.

i read an article somewhere some place that compared the 2600+ TB and Barton - it showed the Barton was only marginally faster
