I've been upgrading my system in small doses, and it's time to drop in a
faster processor. I've just discovered the existence of the CT-479, and
I'm weighing up the potential of a Pentium-M over a 3.2GHz Northwood or
3.4GHz Prescott. http://www.legitreviews.com/article.php?aid=181
The system in which I'm upgrading the processor is as follows:
- Asus P4P800SE
- Pentium IV 2.6GHz 400FSB
- Corsair TWINX1024-3200C2PT (2x 512MB)
- Seagate 7200.8 200GB SATA-150 ST3200826AS
- ATI Radeon 9700 Pro 128MB
- FSP350-60PN(PF) 350W PSU
I know the benefits of the Pentium-M over the Pentium 4, but even a
mid-range Pentium-M costs more than a 3.2GHz Northwood or a 3.4GHz
Prescott. So where on the Pentium-M scale would I start to see
improvements over the two aforementioned socket 478 processors? All the
reviews I see only seem to compare the CT-479/Pentium-M combination to
processors on other sockets, and not the fastest socket 478 ones.
