"OVERCLOCKING AND MODDING THREAD........"

Well i know i have done a thread like this a while back but i thought i would try again and see if any of the noobs are interested in this sort of thing and want some advice and help from us pro's :).

Thoroughbred B mate :D

My cooling should allow approximately 2.5ghz from the chip, but I think I'll probably blow out my PCI bus before then. I'll have to see about unlocking it to gain higher multipliers.

Lol, unlocking a chip to get HIGHER multipliers, now there's a new one!

Damn I need an nForce 2 board...

I think I could get further, but my XP is a Palomino, which somewhat restricts its OC potential.

I'm getting an XP1700, I'm aiming to get 2.2ghz from it.

Thats prety good going.

Well on the subject of overclocking, I have an Athlon XP1700+ operating stable at 1.62GHz

Thats 152MHz bus, not too shabby eh??

Air Cooling too, around 40 degrees idle, 48 under heavy load, with no voltage increase.

10000 word disertation.

what might take some time???.

that mite take ya some time.

as long as you keep it cool and have low votages then stability would not be a problem, I know that a P4 will overclock well without getting a massive HSF and just with the reatail one, also most do not need a massive voltage increase.

I'd rather have stability and silence, although I'm getting an ABIT NF7-S to replace my EpoX I bought last month (which I only bought to replace another ABIT I bought in October), so I might push it a little higher when I get the time.

Not now though, I have a 10,000 word dissertation due in 10 days :O/
