Pentium D 805 stable @ 4.1ghz?

There are still some situations in life that are guaranteed to put a grin on anyone's face, even hard-boiled technical skeptics like us. This particular story borders on being a sensation unmatched in our last eight years of hardware reviews. The news, for those who just can't stand the wait any more, is this: Intel has offered a budget Pentium as part of its processor line-up for a little while now. With a simple modification, however, this CPU can outperform every top-of-the-line processor around.

The bottom line is that the Athlon FX-60 and the Pentium Extreme Edition 965 have both met their match - there's simply no escaping this conclusion! This is bound to cause lamentation among the elite circle of users who've invested big bucks in their high-end systems, if not outright wailing and rending of garments. The basic stats for this insignificant-seeming budget processor read as follows: Pentium D 805 clocked at 2.66 GHz, equipped with two processor cores both with 64 bit support. At your friendly neighborhood retailer you can pick up this secret weapon for pocket change - right now, for example, it's available at newegg.com for just under $130. We were quite amazed as the first performance figures emerged from our test labs: stable operation was possible at 4.1 GHz, and without even the need for substantial boosts to cooling!

or maybe get a new rig...

I agree. Its my processor ryt now

but are you getting 4.1Ghz speeds also ?

[marcus_aurelius]

Yeah right, but it needs water cooling to keep up 4.1ghz speed bump from 2.6ghz ( http://www.tomshardware.com/2006/05/...es/page25.html). Its a nice processor though, been eying it for a while. Nice post.

yup thats the question now...

How stable is that stable claim? And of course the heat problems are always there. The problem is how to achieve that 4.1 Ghz speed considering lain lain man ug config ang mga tawo..

I don't think so..
