I hit the big one gig!

hi everyone, I am a newbie here. I am really happy and just want to share it with you guys =)

I have a A7v voltage set at 1.80/1.85 , Duron 10x100mhz 750@1009 mhz. I am runing winME and it just boots up with no problems. I have a FOP38, that best fan but a little high on the noise. mobo is at 32.0c and Cpu is at 40.0c that after I ran the Burnin test 2.0 for 15mins and pass! As for the jumper settings is there a better set up? I would like to try to get 1.1-1.2gig if I can, What do you guys think? Thanks for all the help that you guys have given me in the pass...... you guys know who you are!!

That's running pretty cool already, so the only way you have of getting much higher is the volt mod - it's risky, and you ought to be very confident that you can do it or you are willing to replace the board before beginning. Here's the article at Tom's Hardware on how to do it - and it is possible, I managed it after almost screwing up, I posted a few times about it - http://www.tomshardware.com/howto/00q3/000928/index.html . With temps like that, you ought to be able to go to about 2 - 2.1V, which'd probably get you to 1100 or thereabouts - it's definitely worth it BUT only if you're confident (I don't want to be responsible for some guy screwing up a lovely A7V... ;-) ).

If you don't want to do that, dropping the mutliplier back to 9.5 and running a 105 or 107 fsb would keep you at about a gig, but give better performance. If you haven't already, try going in jumper mode - some people have found it gives better stability than jumperfree mode (doesn't matter for me, guess it depends on the board). Well done on the gig!
