Though why was the 3 GHz P4 any good? I remember the uproar about the northwood being more powerful than the first prescotts.

To clarify, this case was built for Intel to celebrate the release of the P4 3.06GHz (533FBS and the first P4 with HT).

However due to that fairly useless i845 chipset my P4 2.4 with PC1066 RDRAM was actually quicker ;)

It was just like 1 and 2 Ghz, it's a magic number.

As for the case, very nice. Intel for teh win.

The case looks decent but otherwise it's a simple and standard build.
