Does anybody know, if the adapter works on the Asus P4P800?
For those in the states,....where are the 533fsb P-Ms for sale? I haven't found any place yet.

DrJay: It's not really that hard to find them...
12 stores linked here for the 770:

Will you be able to mount a regular heatsink on this chip or will you have to use a special one
Thanks. Yeah, alot of people seem to have them.......guess I was just looking in the wrong places.Quote:

If so, then they could be pretty good budget overclockers: newest stepping but still 400 FSB >> higher multipliers at much lower price (and half the cache disabled..). I haven't found any info at Intel, they dont list any C0 CM's yet, but on the other hand they don't list the 370J for instance...
If you don't know then I really hope that someone will post a CPUZ of a CM -J soon...
2. How much do you know about the adapter being stable over 220 FSB in 2D but very buggy in games over 185 FSB like some reviews say? I'm looking for a totally stable system.
I don't think the adaptor is the problem as the japanese guys are getting 260-270 1:1 2-2-2-5 :)Quote:

I saw that, but is it stable in games? This is not the regular unstable system we're talking about. It can run stable for a lot of 2D stuff like Prime95 and such, but not games. It must be some kind of bug we usually don't see. I really hope it's BIOS related.Quote:

I believe they're coming out with a bios for the p4gd1, but I'm not sure if they'll follow through with it.
Here's the board at ASUS
I found it!!! :toast:Quote:

The 370 in the list is probably a typo, should be 370J since it got both C0 stepping and XD bit like 360J and 350J.
Can't remember, is the Celeron M totally multiplier locked?
Someone told me the Dothan based Celeron M is not locked, but the Banias Celeron M is. I can confirm the Banias Celeron M as my 340 is locked at 15 (1.5Ghz)Quote:

I've found 360J and 370J here in Sweden already.Quote:

Yeah, I'm from Sweden. I'm quite tempted in buying one me too now because it all got so inexpensive, 360J + CT-479 + mobo for about 2100 SEK at datorhandel, if you dare buying from them...Quote:

I have searched for the ct-479 adapter for a couple of weeks and finaly found one in the uk just not sure on the supplier though. not one i have used before.
cd-solutions asus ct-479
ALso dabs.com/uk with have the new aopen 915 socket 479 boards early may.
Hase anyone delt with cd-colutions in the uk before i order one.
New BIOS adds support for CT-479 to P4GPL-X. Now Dothan can be tested on PCIE board.

ASUS is selectively choosing which boards will recieve Dothan support, simply because they want to target boards that haven't been selling lately.
I've come up with a very simple method of getting the Dothan working with any board that has an Award bios. However, seeing as the adapter is not yet available in my area, I've been unable to fully verify this.
Despite that, if anyone is interested, I'd be happy to post a guide.
Tell us please! :toast:Quote:

While I would legally hold no liability, it still doesn't feel good to know you're responsible for the death of someone else's components.... especially if it's a Dothan. :(
If I could get someone with a cheap SIS655 based board, the CT-479 adapter, and a Dothan or Banias that would be willing to test it, that would be ideal.
