    Ok...every review ive seen has said dont get the prescott yet, wait for higher speeds, because there is not any performance increase, and they run alot hotter...

    well people say you can oc a 2500+ to 3200+...with a stock heatsink

    What do you mean by 'stock heatsink'? In order to do this with a 'stock heatsink' u gotta take out the pad put some artic silver. Well it isn't a 'stock heatsink' or 'stock cooling' anymore is it?

    it sort of a gimmick really, thats why i'm at 2ghz with a true stock heatsink

    What I call a stock heatsync is the 60mm*60mm hunk of metal that comes with a retail cpu. It doesnt matter (to me) if the fan has been changed, or the thermal paste has been changed. its still a stock heatsync.

    heatsink, rossco.


    unless u live outside the US, its spelled "heatsink" as in, its a sink for draining heat


    @dbs: the 2.4 would OC more. the 2.4 chips from intel are known all over for their supreme OCability :teehee:


    its also cheaper. lastly, make sure u get the 2.4e

    A 2500+ with the heatsink, fan and thermal paste all stock can be overclocked to 3200+ speeds. I have tested that myself.

    I then removed it and applied Arctic silver and an 80MM fan with a fan adaptor but it does work completely stock.

    yes i know, but me and keiken were having an argument becuase he could not get his to overclock that far, his temps are really high, so i decided to edit the post just to be certain...

    but ya, when I did my aunts I had the stock heatsink and fan, and an intake fan, and an exhaust fan, and used the thermal pad. the temps were about 45 idle so i decided to put on some arctic silver 5, and the temps are around 40 now...i beleive.

    myself i have an all stock heatsink, 1 intake fan and 2 exsaust fans at the back

    cpu is about 48-50 degrees idle, heavens know what it is loaded.
    case temp is 24-28 degrees

    on a hot day the cpu can go to about 57 degrees
