OK these canterwood overclocks are driving me nuts, so I've finally made the switch to Intel. I decided to start with a 2.4/800 since I've never messed around with a P4 and will probably fry this thing within a week or two. I'm going to run it with 2 x 256mb pc3200 twinmos (winbond) and an SLK-800U HSF for a few days, then switch it over to the prometia once I get a new mounting kit for it.
BTW these chips are available in Belgium already, at least one shop in Antwerp has them (forcom.be)
FOLD!!!

I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me.

Good luck with the new chip! Don,t let these guys get to you, I run both AMD and P4,s. It,s more fun that way.
LOL, can't blame you, the canterwoods would make me switch too .....except can't afford it now and the cooler I would want to use cannot be easily converted to intel as the evap head is handmade....may try one in the prommie when finances change for the better.

whered u get your 2.4c?
umm, I got the chip at the place that I linked to in my initial post, forcom.be.
Right now I'm burning the chip in at 3ghz (250*12) at 1.55v using the stock Intel cooler, with the memory at 4:5 ratio, 5-2-2-cas2. I haven't taken the NB cooler off it yet, either. The folding@home performance really surprised me, it looks like 3ghz will get me close to 150pts/day (7:30/frame on a P909 with two consoles running).
Here is my best mem score after messing around for a few hours, remember this is with totally stock cooling:
