Intel has released a new chipset right after the Athlon had its FSB boost. 333MHz on the memory is a giant boost for the P4, it slowest bus speed is 400mhz. Amazing boards with SATA and more standard now. These boards also add HT support.

Overall performance was on par with other Pentium 4 solutions although I did expect to see somewhat better scores. I believe the full potential of the P4PE goes unrealized at this time because features like Serial ATA are not able to be fully utilized along with Hyper-Threading performance going untested at this time until HT enabled processors come out of Intel. Still, DDR333 was needed on the Intel chipset platform and we did not think they were going to work miracles with it...as we are sure they are waiting for dual channel DDR to do that.
