Mobile XP-M 2500+ or Mobile XP-M 2600+
I found a mobile XP-M 2500+ for $83 and the mobile XP-M 2600+ for $93.
Which one is best bang for the buck? I always see the 2500 as the favorite, but for another $10 I'm thinking the 2600+ on paper seems the better choice. Comments? Thanks. |

As it might not be obvious to everyone, (or at least Larry here) any mobile XP can be said to overclock as good as the others so the "best bang for the buck" as the question was posed just might be the least expensive one. They're all the same core. Is that clear enough for you ****o? Find something better to do. |

I went for the 2600+. Eventhough the chips have the same core, I think they
are separated on quality and you could get a higher overclock at a lower voltage with the 2600+, so for $10 bucks I would go for it. It is running at V, but I think with the new BIOS upgrade I might be able to push it up a bit higher or be able to drop the core down. If you check the other posts, I have loaded the Nov 2004, DFI Bios and the system seems to be Prime95 stable at a lower core voltage at the moment it is running 1.0 V lower.

We really don't care about your XP-M-2400... That's a bit harsh, Larry. He does make a point that his cheaper mobile CPU goes well. If he can get the CPU to 2.5GHz without excessive Vcore then it could be a candidate for "best bang for the buck". |
