Turion on the Desktop

Post by gvblake22 »

Anyone try or know anyone who has tried thier luck with the new Turion64 processors on a s754 desktop motherboard? Can it even be done? I don't see any reason why not. Seems like it would be a massive overclocker, especially since you can put retail desktop quality heatsinks on it rather than jsut water cooling or those little heatsinks that come with the desktop s479 boards for Pentium M.

Also, this is the Turion is also known as the "Newark" core right?
