I overcloked to The p150 will be 60 * 2.5. You seem to be running it a 50 * 3, a substantial drop from 66mhz. 60 -> 60 * 1 66 -> 66*1 75 -> 50*1.5 90 -> 60*1.5 100 -> 66*1.5 120 -> 60*2 133 -> 66*2 150 -> 60*2.5 166 -> 66*2.5 180 -> 60*3 200 -> 66*3 (if it ever gets made) Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. >... >went slower than it should? Why are intel charging so much for the p150, >if games are really going to run slower? Are games players best waiting They're not charging anything for it since it isn't out yet. But rumor is that the P150 will debut in the $700 range, a nice bit below the usual 900-950. I guess it is so that they can sell the Pentium-what-marketing-genius-thought-this-name-up-Pro below 1000. -- Jacob Zielinski --> jzielin@wimsey.com "This is UNIX, I know this." <g>
