Hello,
I just got my new processor in the mail. It is a 3.4ghz Pentium 4 Prescott socket 478. I was running a 2.4ghz Pentium 4 Northwood. I upgraded my processor and for some reason the 3.4 is running wayyy slower than the 2.4. My cpu temp idle is 63c and under load its 70+c. I was thinking that since it was hot it was giving me bad performance. Is there a setting i need to change in my bios, it says im runing a 3400mhz which is correct. Is there a setting in windows? Im planning on buying a new heatsink do you have any suggestions for my rig?
Thanks,
Ify
