Overclockers Online har haft gang i en P4 2,2 Ghz Northwood processor.
CPU'en er jo blevet testet så mange steder efterhånden, og nu blev det O2's tur.
"Because the multiplier of every Pentium4 CPU is hard locked, Intel leaves you with nothing but the Front Side Bus to crank up the core speed of their CPUs. The multiplier of our 2.2GHz Northwood sample is locked at 22x just as it is on all retail 2.2GHz P4 CPUs. It's time to fresh up your math folks : 22 x 100MHz FSB = 2200MHz or 2.2GHz. Now, we have increased the 100MHz stock FSB to a sweet 118MHz using our BD7-RAID motherboard. This increase of FSB speed forces the P4 2.2GHz run at 22 x 118MHz or 2600MHZ or no less than an impressive 2.6GHz! "
