If you don't already have it, download and install sisoft sandra 2001 standard: http://www.sisoftware.demon.co.uk/san_dem/html/dload.htm
Open it, and click on 'mainboard information' - scroll down and it ought to list the manufacturer and model number of your mobo. It'd help to know exactly which mobo you have, as ocing is tricky if it doesn't allow you to change the multiplier. As you're obviously concerned about price, I'd suggest the 700 or 750 model - it'll almost certainly get to 900/950 as I said in my other post, and with a bit of care on the cooling side could reach a gig.

i hit the 1g mark with my duron600 but didn't have to go higher with the voltage like Rob. maybe i'm just lucky in o/cing but i've always hit the 1g, now it's time for some more 8)
