Official 266mhz Cpus ?!

[fargo]

I just want to let you know that GPH will be shipping GP2X with CPUs clocked at 266MHz starting early 2007. That may be good for emulators, such as psg and gba.

?????

misinformed or VERY bad news (I'm guessing misinformed)...

 

[craigix]

We already randomly get the 266 versions - entire boxes and in some cases entire shiptments of them.

But GPH have no plans to move to the 266 chipset due to the extra cost of getting all guaranteed 266 boards. (they also told us it might effect current software but the move player seems to work at 266 mhz if you manually set it).

 

[fargo]

Their supplier will discontinue the current chipset/cpu.

 

[craigix]

That may explain the large increase in 266mhz units.

 

[gaterooze]

Wait, so are these the same CPUs but guaranteed to overclock to 266mhz, or something different? What's their general maximum overclock, is it much higher than before?

 

[shinneri]

Where's this information coming from?

 

[craigix]

They are the same but clocktested by ME before they leave the factory I guess, I think PC chip makers do the same or used to do the same.

Maybe the manufacture process is now giving 100% results of 266mhz thus they don't need to sell the lower speed anymore.

You seem very angry. Maybe you should start smoking pot. Seriously.

You obviously haven't read the whole thread.
