Any one gone from PIII 800 or similiar to a T-Bird 1200?

Just what the subject asks.
You can see what I'm running from my sig. Along with a 431w Enermax that's not mentioned.

I'm looking to just change my board and cpu with an Abit KT7A Raid, w\ T-Bird 1200 (266fsb).

Will there be a noticible difference without changing any other hardware? I know Thats a 200mhz jump just by running the chip at default (which would never happen! hehehe!) But I just wanted to know as far as leaving the rest of my hardware the same if it would be worth the upgrade?
Mainly looking for someone with a V5 going from around a 1000mhz cpu to an AMD 1.2gig or so.

And dont worry, I'm not stupid enough to put my 85w tec on that chip! Just the watercooling!

WILL be soon! Going from a PIII 600E to a 1.2Gig266 Athlon, Asus A7M266....and a new Enermax P.S.
We'll C...

Went from P3-600E to T-Bird 1.33. Actually, I still kept that P3-600 and built a second machine. I see a huge difference although my new machine now has GeForce3 versus Voodoo5 still in my P3-600.

You should try putting your V5 in the 1.2 gig rig. Ya know they say the faster the cpu the better it performs. When I went from my PIII 600 to my PIII 800, It was a night and day difference on the performance of my V5. Thats why I'm interested to see how it woud perform with a 1.2 gig.

3DFX may be dead but I still love my V5!

Went from PII700@980@140FSB to TBird 1.1@1.35@156MHz . I liked it so much that I purchased an AXIA processor as a foundation for my current rigg. Most notably SETI times dropped from 6:20 to 4:20 per unit, and the system just feels faaaasssst...

Man I want it so bad now! I just have to find someone to buy this BE6-II and PIII 800 off of me now. I think I'll have a good chance at getting over 1.5gig with that cpu and board with watercooling.

went from a BF6/700E @ 1050 to an A7V133/1gig @ 1575 (water cooled) w/ a V5500 and yes there is a difference - it is fast fast fast.

you have the advantage of having water cooling so i would do it, water cooling was made for t-birds - they run sooo friggin hot, especially when you feed em 2.05v - yeeesh. i had the fan on my gorb crap out for at least a day on my 700E with it a 933 and it barely hiccupped.
