hi guys My nephew bought a new pc. with a nice new P3-800@133Mhz I have to assimilate the pc...

the P3-800@100mhz is mine. so now I have to make a choice

here's what I've got

P3-800 @ 100Mhz fsb @ cB0 stepping
P3-800 @ 133Mhz fsb @ cC0 stepping

the p3-800@100 will boot up steady at 116fsb @ 1.75Vcore
although, playing quake for 2 minute's system reboots spontaneous. even with higher voltage, sucks a bit. it can reach 126 after first booting up at 118 and 124.
but no boot to windows.


the P3-800@133 boots up at 150fsb easily (900Mhz)
it CAN boot up at 166fsb (994Mhz) but hangs after a few mins, got ram running at 3/4 of 166 (120 or something?)


cooling: alpha pep66
p3v4x
128MB of unknown ram (can run 150 though)


now that's so nice, I've got myself 2 800's :)

which 1 do I have to keep?! which 1 would you keep? :)
