I'm building a new system I am using a 850 T-bird on a A7Pro board made by ASUS with 256M of 133Mz Cas2 ram. I have found alot of info about the A7pro's brother the A7V but not much about the Pro. How fast do you guys think I can get my proccesor to go without heating up over 50C with a few regular fans???

It all depends on the board and the chip and if the planets are alligned with the sun properly and all that jazz...

Best advice I could give and it's only an opinion, start out slow, move up through 50Mhz every o/c. See where it takes you. Keep an eye on those temps. If it gets smok'n back down, run to the store, grab a better fan and start over again.

An 850 could probably dance the realm of 1Ghz to 1.2 very easily with some good cooling, but then again it's hard to say.

I'd move it 50Mhz at a time and watch the temps. I feel pretty certain you can o/c past 1Ghz.

Luck!
