I'm going to be buying a new P4 soon and need some advice. The new chip will be either a 3.0C or 3.2C and it'll be watercooled on an Asus P4C800-E with 2 x 512MB PC3200 (the original Corsair TwinX 3200LL stuff) modules. I have noticed that there are some P4s with slightly different (8-layer, 30-cap) packaging around and they seem to be pretty decent overclockers. Given that the 'new package' P4s (SL78Z, SL792) are tricky to get hold of, is it really worth me trying to get hold of one of them? I mean, do you think they really offer enough of a benefit to warrant the hassle of trying to find one?
Thanks for any advice you can offer.
