hi,
Had a celeron 633 @ 950 with 2.1v going through it for 4months, never got over 31c with full load (autumn - winter).
I turned my machine on the other day and all my case fans went extremly loud, like they were getting more power or something, then the computer turned off!... very strange i thought.
Now the CPU doesn't work, i tested my other hardware with my bros P3 cpu and worked like a charm, but the CPU is now dead, in both systems!
There is no physical damage done to the cpu and no smell was emitted, i have tried it in 3 systems and no go... tried different slot converters no go.
I think it may be due to the fact that it had 2.1v going in it, and when this 'power surge' took place it jumped it far to high and boom =(
there was no noise either...
any have any ideas/ suggestions as i don't think intel will except this baby under warranty =(?
