It's the best one. Check with CPU-Z for the stepping. This gives you some
data about the max speed for your CPU (do a Google for more info about how
to interprete the figures).

Note he said P4 "B" 2.4 (533 fsb.) It's a good overclocker, but the P4C 2.4
(800 fsb,) is a better performer and a better overclocker. If the
motherboard will support it, the "C" is a wiser choice.

You should be able to OC with standart cooling
Probably 3.2.

My 2.4B is running at 3.06 without taking any "extraordinary" measures like
liquid cooling. Running at 1.6V, though.

With the cover of my computer on, they were running at 45 degrees celcius at
idle. With it off, it was running at 38. Add about 15 degrees for load
temps.

As Skid said, the 2.4C would be a better choice.

Very true, & they don't cost that much anymore.
I've got a 2.6 @ 3.23, I can go further, but need a sound card.
Onboard cuts out @ about 3.24? heh?
Somewhere around, or above where I am now.
PC2100 Ram cant go any further then 331, but with what I get out of the 330
@ 165.6 MHz
Sandra 2004Pro reports 4,500 & then some on both sides, sometimes a little
less.
CPU test is 9,800 and some change. something like, hm,, 9,867 MIPS

Hm, why not just say BIPS : Like 9.8 BIPS?
Denny. :-) blah blah blah,, ;-)
