| Difference of these processors?
Intel Pentium 4 2.4BGHz 512K 533MHz CPU Northwood P478 Processor Retail Box $164.00
Intel Pentium 4 / 2.4GHz Northwood 512K Socket 478 Processor 400MHz Retail Box $170.00
These are from newwgg.com, could not get the link to work.

If you are planning to overclock it then go with the one with the 400mhz(100mhz quad pumped) FSB if not then get the one with the 533mhz(133mhz quad pumped) FSB one. | |

Can anyone recommend a motherboard to go with the "Intel Pentium 4 2.4BGHz 512K 533MHz CPU Northwood P478 Processor Retail Box $164.00" processor. I am leaning towards the INtel D845PESVL for cost, onboard audio and stability issues.THe board costs $107.00. | |

All depends, do you want DDR or RDRAM? | |

It is my belief, if you go P4, the RDRAM is the best option, with the cost of RDRAM dropping to near DDR levels and it being the faster memory, it would be my choice.
I recently setup a 2.53 533 system for a client, and tried overclocking it. Easily could get it to 2.7 on the stock heatsink and fan. Not too shabby at all.
