2.8ghz Pentium 4 - Oldie but Goodie

Advantages: Cheap, Good Performace
Disadvantages: Not HT, L2 Cache could be bigger, Easy to install if you know how.

I've had this processor for nearly two years now, and following a cost benefit anaylsis, I still don't see the point in upgrading. It's a perfectly capable processor, and teamed with 1GB of memory, it performs well. Theres not a lot to say about this processor, and what will be said will be extreamly boring. I can see why processors don't have a lot of reviews, they're not exactly easy or fun to write about, but I'll give it my best shot. ----------General ...
...style interface meaning it is only comaptable with socket 478 motherboards(Though i believe you can buy an adapter for 478 chips to make the work with socket LLG775 motherboards - the newer but not newest design). The processor is 32-bit, has 512kb of L2 Cache and a FSB equivalent to 533mhz. This makes the processor relatively quick and very capable for everyday tasks and even gaming (when paired with a good graphics card). It is available in the ...

The next was the Northwood, which is the one which sits in most computers nowadays. Then there's the ridiculously expensive Extreme Edition, for really silly gamers who want huge performance from their machines. And of course the P4-M for laptops. This ...
...But there's a new version on the block called Prescott. This, I decided, was the chip for me. Firstly, it's got the 800MHz front serial bus found in the later versions of the Northwood. The FSB speed makes a significant difference to the performance of the chip. Next it has a 1MB 2nd level cache. I have no idea what this means, but am told that it makes the CPU faster. I think it works like, you get it from the hard drive, put it in ram, take it ...
