Hey there I am looking to order a new (Intel) CPU tomorrow and I was wondering what is the fastest P4 I can go with that will guarantee a 250mhz fsb? I was thinking of getting the 2.6c but have since second guessed myself and figured it was safest to grab a 2.4c. Any thoughts would be great. I am not looking to go any further than say 270mhz fsb either – so the fastest p4 ( highest multiplier ) that will for sure run a 250fsb is what I’m looking for.

Thanks a ton

(Other specs are in my sig)
 
2.4c is your safest bet, especially if you want to get around 270fsb. i haven't heard much about 2.6c oc's but not many 2.8c's can make it to 250fsb stabley for a day to day oc.
 
You should be able to get the 2.4C to 250fsb no problem, but your RAM may come into play.
 
my m0 does 275fsb (3.3) at default voltage, your best bet would be looking around on ebay or the fs/ft section for a 2.4c that someone has allready pretested the overclock on. thats how i chose my 2.4c
 
my 2.8C is running on 250FSB for almost 8 months now. No problems at all.
 
Hm kk I was hoping I could easily hit 250fsb on a 2.6c, but I might just have to order the 2.4c. Thanks for all the info =)
