quick question.... will the prescott cpu 3.2 - 3.4 ghz work on the
sony rs402???? or will i need northwood core cpu
any help most appreciated

I think it's a Prescott, so I would stick with that.
Apparently they're better than Northwood anyway.

Prescott goes to 3.6 now.
Not sure if it's the same FSB or form. You would have to verify this before purchasing.

i am aware that prescott are new form now they use different socket set so in turn there are 2 prescotts out the old prescott only goes up 2 3.6 new ones are 3.8. but if thats the case then 3.4 should be fine!!!!

if any1 else can help on this will be greatful

Yeah it's confusing that business of two Prescotts.

Thought one was enough (John Prescott)
