Ha, yeah 400+ FSB, not memory speed on 4:5. A little update on the 'will the XBX2 be retired or not' story, should anyone really care
. Initial observations are 3.9 GHz my CPU doesnt like too much without going some above 1.55 vcore with the P5K Deluxe. It got over a few Orthos humps around 1.57 vcore (dont know what actual is yet, but vdroop is supposed to be really good on that Asus board). Still not Orthos stable though at 3.9 at voltages I'm comfortable with. So now if it can do 3.8 GHz with DDR2-1000+ stable, I think I'll retire the XBX2...still testing. I'll miss the seemingly better quality of construction the XBX2 has, but if it dont work for what I want it to do...
Maybe when Intel breaks out a P35 "Extreme" board of thier own that should be interesting, I kinda am feeling like I'm dumping an old friend now with this XBX2 'possible retirement' testing, lol.
