$90 CPU doing 3700Mhz

[NoEcho]

Celeron@ 3.3 G= 1 frame per 1:20 or 80 seconds
Xp1600@ 1.7 G = 1 frame per 1:30 or 90 seconds

I got that right?

Looks like an OC'd xp still has the price/performance edge in Folding and Multimedia. Must be nice to have a near 100% OC though!

Wait till the gromacs come back.

lol is it true that the 3dmark scores arnt even near a axp 1500 stock?

Bang for the buck, XP's are still better for folding. Sure would be nice to see more of your names on our folding team. Ive been there for only 2 months an in place 13 now.

Hint hint. that mean please sign up and help us out.

I havnt had a chance to try any gromacs out on the celeron, since there havnt been any in a while, and i am on the beta team, and no date on getting anymore.

My tbred 1800's @ 2ghz kill the celeron. plus you can buy 2 for the price of a celeron 2.2 which is around $120 now. I got it off the intel IPD for $78 though and the 2.0 for $59. Otherwise I wouldnt of spent the money on celeron's.

I can get 13.8k 3dmark out of the celeron

Hehe and on a Bd7 with an older bios, it shows as a true p4 on startup to all you "posers" out there. hehe.

Where are those people getting those chips??

[razor_dsm]

you can sometimes get them on ebay, and newegg has them... there is a 45w 1900+ there that has a stock core of 1.5v for $99
the other ones have a 1.4v core... dont ask me about the price difference cause i have no clue why they are so far apart. I heard newegg baught a bunch of them becasue they heard OCers like us where buying them up, as far as i know its the only 2 places you can get them, and besides the .1v core difference i dont think there is any difference between the two... if you can find out any more let me know

i started a thread here...
