PC Stats has posted an Intel Pentium 4 2.66GHz Processor Review



For those of us who want top of the line performance but don't want to spend a fortune, the Pentium 4 2.66 GHz processor offers a good mix of power and value. With a street price of $650 CDN ($300 US) the P4 2.66 is certainly more expensive than a comparable AMD Athlon XP, but it's still quite a bit less then the $830 CDN ($410 US) a P4 2.8 GHz commands. I highly doubt you'll notice the 140 MHz speed difference, but the $180 price difference will be immediately evident!
