Northwood P4s Unveiled -- 10:45 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

NDAs expired today on the new Northwood core Pentium 4s. They are very impressive from a number of standpoints. They run very cool for a 2Ghz processor and are quite overclockable. Yes, I just said that about a P4. Check out the preview from Kyle and the boys over at HardOCP. Despite the advantages and the new core, the newly released Athlon XP 2000+ (1.66 Ghz) is still faster than the 2.0 Ghz Northwoods at a much lower price.

I'll have to see what the prices on the Northwood P4s when I upgrade. While AMD still is better from a bang-for-buck standpoint, the Intel motherboard chipsets are far more stable. VIA spooks me in that respect.
