TweakTown may be a little late with this baby, but you can be sure that the TweakTown lads have spent that extra time wisely. The dingus of the moment is the Intel Pentium 4 1.5GHz processor, and TweakTown ahs the goods on overclocking the mofo, details on its heatsink, comparative benchmarking and everything else you might expect. Here's a falvoursome morsel to whet your appetite:

'The Intel Pentium 4 processor is a fast processor, built for the future, not today. Intel should have designed the processor for today so it's features can be fully utilized. Intel didn't though, they designed it hoping programmers would take advantage of the processors new features after it's release, not a very wise discussion I believe. I cannot justify spending AU$2000 on a processor and memory, not when it can be beaten in just about all benchmarks by a top end AMD Athlon processor (especially AMD's new AXIA stepping which can hit 1.5GHz) which is a quarter of the price of an Intel Pentium 4, at least at the moment.'
