<b>Don't buy Pentium4 chips</b>, these things will spontaneously ignite, explode and then selfdestruct. There are hundreds, if not thousands of reports of users that witnessed this, <A HREF="http://www.ocforums.com/vb/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=115166" target="_new">have a look here </A>
If you thought Northwood was bad, Prescott is even worse ! due to its smaller process and incredibly high temperatures, its even more likely to blow up before you even turn your computer on ! I swear, a friend of my sisters nephew knows at least two dozen people who have destroyed their Prescotts without even modding the motherboard ! He also told me P4EE burns through its cash like their is no tomorrow. Don't buy these POS chips ! And if you have one, I recommend you lower your FSB to half of what intel tells you, if you want it to work more than 2 weeks !
I am severly limited in what my mind can perceive.
