1Gig TBird@1210 11.5x110. default voltage. purchased 25/03/01 in UK.
Generic 256Mb PC133 @ 146Mhz. ABIT KT7Raid,
Taisol CGK742092 cooler+copper shim ;)
idle=28c after 2 hours online UT=40c.. using VIA HWMv2.04... is this accurate??
I's tempted to push this bird higher but I'm a little afraid.
Cowardly because this is my second bird in 2 months..read on
Sorry but I put cooler on before taking codes... No I aint removing it, I screwed
a 900 TBird using a Super Orb... ho ho ho.

dont worry about removing the taisol, it wont hurt you tbird...its the orb that killed it...theyve been known to kill 'em all the time!

if everything seems stable now, you should be fine to go higher...you might run into problems with your RAM though...consider buying some Crucial (micron) or Mushkin RAM...both great for oc'ing

1Gig TBird (200 fsb) with code "AXIA0110BPAW" @1370 (10*137) default voltage. purchased 20/03/01 in Canada.
Apacer (Infineon) 256Mb PC133 @ 137Mhz.
ABIT KT7A (no RAID)
Alpha PAL3065 with grey thermal paste
idle=26-27C after 2 hours online approximately 29-30C. Under full load (100% CPU utilization) 42-43C ( all measured using MBM which gives the same measurement as VIA hardware monitor).

You better know the code of the CPU before trying to overclock higher. The 1 Ghz "AXIA" has been known to run at 1.4 Ghz (default voltage). I think I stop here regarding overclocking even though I know I can get more. 1370 GHz for the price of 1 Ghz. What a deal!!!!
