Athlon XP-M 2500+ Review (DDR400 2.4ghz Performance vs A64 & P4"C")
TechReport.com: [link=http://www.tech-report.com/reviews/2004q1/athlonxp-m-2500/index.x?pg=1]Overclocking the Athlon XP-M 2500+ processor[/link]
THOSE OF YOU WHO REGULARLY PERUSE the news here at TR probably saw [link=http://www.tech-report.com/onearticle.x/6311]this item[/link] about the Athlon XP-M 2500+ and its recently discovered overclocking potential. The chips have become so popular so quickly that their street price has jumped 33% in recent days. Of course, given the accounts of overclocking to 2700MHz "on air" (using only a heatsink/fan) it's no wonder they're so popular.
Needless to say, we couldn't sit this one out, so last week we ordered up an Athlon XP-M 2500+, and have spent the last 24 hours or so putting it through its paces. Read on to find out more about this overclocking wonder, and see how our particular chip fared.
[blockquote](With Bone-Stock Air Cooling) We managed to get 2.5GHz @ 1.96V (yes, 1.96, that's one of the settings on the AN7), but it wasn't stable enough to complete our benchmark suite, so we decided to back down to 2.4GHz at 1.8V and run our benchmarks there.[/blockquote]

AMD the Price/Performance Champion!
I would like to see 240mhz FSB480 2.4ghz benchmarks....
