Solve : 478 Help?

1.	Solve : 478 Help?
Answer» I need a pent 4 478 for my one rig that I had parts left over from when I built my gaming tower. The thing is I went to geeks an seen Intel Pentium 4 3EGHz 800MHz 1MB Socket 478 CPU does that mean its faster then 3 ghz? I DONT want it for this machine but thought about removeing the one in my gaming pc since its like 2.8 ghz There are different flavors of even those older chips. Best thing is to TAKE a look ant the Intel site and look it up with the part number. Some on line stores do a poor job of detail on the stuff they sell. The E usually designates a HyperThreading capable CPU. Those specs match up with the SL7PM CPU - 3GHz, HT, 1MB L2 cache, 800MHz FSB. As you need a P4 anyway, if it's a good price you MAY as well replace the one in your gaming rig, however if there are cheaper ones just grab one for this other PC as the speed boost won't be much for your rig.so basically its just processing more threads? Quote from: squall_01 on October 09, 2008, 05:17:46 AM so basically its just processing more threads? Do some research Here good site... so in other words it has two pipelines that can excute threads really fast, show up like if it was a dual core. that the task manger would see it as two instead of one cpu.It pretends to be a dual core, but it's nothing like the real thing. Some applications show large benefits, some slow down, and some CRASH when Hyper-Threading is enabled.So in other words unless they use them it wouldnt be the best to use itHyper Threading isn't a bad thing, I say if you have it leave it enabled unless it causes problems.I'm just going to get a slower one then. Doesnt seem worth makeing a pc that works into one that I cant use.
