Stepping D Northwood

[lawrence131]

Friend's Dell crapped out so I gutted it and built up a new AMD system for him using his old drives, etc. He gave me the CPU and it turns out to be a Northwood Stepping D0 2.66Ghz Pentium 4. I haven't used Intel since the P3 days. Is this CPU a decent performer/overclocker ?

I got this dirt cheap board to build up yet another cheap spare system with integrated everything cuz it was cheap and had good reviews.
