here...

Very strong scores here, remember this kind
of performance won't be available for some time without
a system such as Prometeia.
NB: It would have been even more impressive to keep my
RIMMS at 1066 but with a FSB of over 632QDR it would really
take a magnificent stick, or rather two sticks, of ram
to be stable at such a high frequency, still I can't help
but dream...
I also used PCMark to check for stability
and performance...

I've included the result from a default
Pentium 4 2.53GHz here so we can all clearly see the huge
difference overclocking makes. With most printed media
still regarding overclocking as something of a black art
it is great to observe the increased performance. Systems
such as Chip-Con's can only help further the image of
overclocking throughout the wider-spread audience, which,
in my opinion, is a very good thing indeed.
