Get some liquid nitrogen, and take it to 1GHZ. You should be ok, just dont stop the flow of nitrogen (the chip will expand so much that it shatters)

Whats your whole set-up that might help people out , so they have a idea of what you got to work with.
i think you might be able to hit maybe 400Mhz to 500Mhz , dont hold me on them. just a geuss

that board would be socket 7...most of those boards only had multipliers up to just enough to support an 233mhz pentium mmx (top of the line back then and highest pentium ever made for the socket 7 platform) U r probably looking at fsb overclocking, probably 75 or 83 mhz fsb. Right now you are probably at 3.5x66mhz fsb = 233mhz. Ur options will probably be 3.5x75 = 262.5mhz or 3.5x83 = 290.5mhz. Also there is only a slim chance you will have overclocking options in the bios. There will be jumpers on the mobo, but you will need the manual to see what they do. Give me some specifics and i might be able to help u a bit. (I have a similar system - p166 @ 208 so i have a bit of experience with the old socket 7 boards)

You're in the same position I'm in, except I have the 333 on a PCChips motherboard. Problem with these K62's is that they don't like going over 75mhz without serious cooling. I gave up on trying to OC this system because it's next to impossible to OC without corrupting data on drives, frying chips, etc.
Enjoy what you have and be extremely cautious if you start monkeying around in the bios, it only takes once!!

by the way that is most likely a super 7 board, not a standard socket 7 like he probably has

the ali website?
when you start up your pc, the first screen that pops up MIGHT have your mobo model number on it. it the top left is your bios rev. number, and somewhere on the bottom or bottom left MIGHT be your mobo model number.
or, just write down the whole string, and google it. you'd be surprised what kind of good info you can get by googling what looks like garbage.
happy hunting.

The K6-233 was the hottest of the series before a few K6-266's and K6-2 266's came out.
NewEgg has K6-2 533? for $15. I'd get that and push it to 600.
