I have a green athlon XP 1800+. I was thinking about trying to overclock it, but none of the pictures i've seen in guides look anything like what the pins for my L1 cache look like. I did a crude photoshop representation of what it sort of looks like:
I can't even tell what pins are supposed to be the L1 cache, and whether it can be unlocked or if its one of those that came already unlocked and my bios just isn't letting me change anything... Anyone know whats up with this CPU? thanks...
Edit: Oh, its the same as this guy's. Thats the only other pic i've seen that has matched how mine looks so far.
Also, before I go tryin' stuff, if one were to cross connections or screw up something while trying to connect bridges, would that screw up the whole CPU entirely, or would overclocking just not work?
