Here you go, GERRY.

A friend always says to have a beer or two prior to soldering SMTs.. :)

Best of success to you.

so if i solder the 2 domes in the pic at the above link, will that be set at 1/3 cache speed or the stock 1/2 i already have?
also where the hell do the ends of the wires go after i solder the other end? lol i would like the L2 cache to be at 1/3, from what i hear.
goodness gracious, guys dont leave me now !!!!!!!!
thanx!!

Okay, I've got more info.

http://members.nbci.com/candjac/athlonocg.htm See the pages on Athlon classic.

http://www.ipkonfig.com/Articles/OC-Athlon/ shows explicitly how to set the 'L2' cache to 1/3 processor speed...a much better and thorough explanation.

Cheers,

Why canīt you use MATHLON?
According too me it does exactly the same thing as your soldering trick.
You know, that you can at first deactivate your level 2cache, when using MATHLON. It will reactivate it later.
Hope that helps!
