Hardocp had a few hours alone with a yet-to-be officially released Pentium 4 2.4C and a new ABIT IC7 Canterwood mainboard.

For those of you that do not know, the Pentium 4 "C" processors are the ones that use the new 800MHz Front Side Bus supported by the recently introduced i875 chipset codenamed Canterwood. These chips also support HyperThreading technology.

Currently, the only CPU officially released by Intel that supports the 800MHz FSB and HT is the 3GHz model or the "3C". It is fairly common knowledge in the industry that 2.4C, 2.6C, and 2.8C processors are to follow here very shortly.
