That is why I picked up that CPU. The mobo it is on will go from a 533 FSB
up to 1066 , and is fairly flexible. Given that the cpu multiplier is 20
(providing 2.66GHz for that 533MHZ FSB) it could be very interesting. I
don't want to go up to water cooling, but should be able to ratchet the
speed up a fair amount just using fans.

Hope this is helpful!


Yes, it was very helpful. That was more or less what I had thought, but
figured it was worth asking.
