I've just posted my complete review of the latest CPU from Intel running at 1.7GHz. Be sure to read the review to learn in details how work all the new features introduced by the brand new revolutionnary Pentium 4 architecture and how the Intel D850GB Motherboard performs. Don't forget to check out the features of the i82850 Pentium 4 dedicated chipset. Obviously the review comes with a whole set of benchmarks including SysMark 2001 ones. Here is a snippet of the test:

The well known Santa Clara based CPU Giant has recently introduced the fastest processor on earth in terms of frequency. Their brand new baby is now clocked at 1.7GHz and is full of promises for every user that is in quest for power to perform complex multimedia tasks. The 1.7GHz processor joins the existing Pentium 4 family. When Intel launched the Pentium 4, in november 2000, they chose to keep the existing Pentium brand name, due to the fact they have already spent millions of dollars to promote the name (Pentium is as known as Coca-Cola worldwide). Don’t let the name trick you, however. Pentium 4 has only the name and a few parts from its predecessor. This processor is the first to have a newly designed architecture since the Pentium Pro was released in 1995. Primarily dedicated to power users, graphic artists, and other hard core gamers the Pentium 4 1.7GHz set new level of performance for computing use and is priced at a very competitive price (comparing to previous models) that turns around $329 (OEM price). The price seems far when processors evolved by 33 MHz speed increase steps! With a 200MHz increase over the Pentium 4 1.5GHz you can expect this new top notch processor to widely surpass its 1.5GHz predecessor, at least that’s what we’ll expect to see in this complete review.
