I have a Pentium 4 'Northwood' 2.66GHz CPU (rig in sig), and a pin numbered W6 (according to this page 60) is gone. It works but will I get performance drop?? I'm going to play Battlefield 2/2142 (which uses CPU extensively) with a lot of bots.

Pin name: VSS
Pin number: W6
Signal buffer type: Power/Other
Direction: -

That's all what I got.

That is hard to tell, I would say if it's running, No. But, there is only one way to find out.

Well, my question is "Will I get performance drop?" not "Will it run?" because it runs/works.
And wow! You have a GeForce 8800GTS!!

There shouldn't be a problem but, run something CPU intensive, that will tell the truth.

I don't have an 8800GTS, yet, but I will be buying one some time this Summer. I run a little X1300PRO right now.
