the prescott will have a 3.4 stock cpu. so u start out at 3.4

No, abu, you don't get it, do you: The point is, Prescott clocked at 3.4 GHz and 1 MB L2 cache may not perform as well as a Northwood Pentium 4 also clocked at 3.4 GHz with 512 Kb L2 cache due to the fact that the Prescott with have an approximately 30 stage pipeline as opposed to the Pentium 4 which has a 20 stage pipeline.

Don&#39;t take it so personally, my friend. I just wanted to make sure that you understood what I meant. Did you get a chance to read the article?

Good point, i didn&#39;t get to read the article. but i read another one also talking bout the prescott cpu, and it said they&#39;re shipping out 3.4ghz cpus. i completely understand that they might not perform as well as a 3.4 with 512 L2 cache, but i was just saying that they&#39;ll have 3.4 ghz cpus.

please don&#39;t take me as an idiot. i may be dumb sometimes, but not all the time


now, ANSWER MY QUESTION BOUT THE FUKING OEM CASE&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; do i get the screws and little shit with the oem or not? If not, how the fuck am i supposed to put my mobo in there??&#33;?&#33;?&#33;? (abu turning green and naked&#33

Abu, you should probably go to a different forum for that question.
This forum definately has its characters, and I have some good friends around here, but if I were you I would post your question at a more enthusiast site, like abxzone.com, or you mentioned once that you frequent overclockers.com.

Why don&#39;t you ask there? I am sure you will get a timely, informative response at abxzone.com or why don&#39;t you try xbitlabs.com? The folks there are super knoweldgeable and friendly (they know the answers to technical questions)...

sory bout the yelling. i was getting a bit "hot". anyways, i figured it out. it comes with lots of screws and the spacers&#33;&#33; sweet&#33;&#33; i&#39;m buying this tomorow morning. it&#39;s 1:18 am over here.

It came with plenty of screws and motherboard risers but NO documentation. Everything is clearly marked though so this was not a big deal.

that&#39;s good enough for me. (it came from 1 of the reviews on newegg)

and sory again bout the yelling. i currently go to forums.extremeoverclocking.com for "this type" of question, sometimes. but they tend to be extremely slow to answer, mainly cuz they have so many categories.

Abu, what about the mobo? Are you still going to get that Asus?

And when are you ever going to learn how to spell WHAT?
