Just got word that Hexus Tarinder Sandhu has posted his day out with AMD's Athlon XP1700 JIUHB CPU! and by the end of the day she was screaming for mercy! Here's a snip.
The idea of getting something for nothing is the enthusiasts' motto. The something, in this case, is an extra 800Hz+ with minimal voltage increase on all fronts. There's no denying the satisfaction one feels by running a sub-£50 CPU at speeds faster than any officially released AMD Athlon XP. Further, pairing it up with select nForce2 motherboards allows you to fully exploit the performance potential of any XP1700 JIUHB. as you can choose the multiplier and FSB that best suits your needs. Running flawlessly at 2.3GHz+ at 1.65v load voltage seems too good to be true, but in this case it's perfectly achievable.
This XP1700 JIUHB isn't an isolated, hand-picked case. Looking a a number of overclocking databases, these JUIHBs seem to do anything between 2.2GHz - 2.5GHz with moderate cooling. Our benchmarks have shown, in graphic terms, just what a meaningful increase one can expect with respect to overall performance. In view of all that's been discussed in this review, it's imperative to look closely at not just the processor's default speed, but also to the codes contained on the CPU's packaging.
