overclocking cel 700 - asus cusi-m

[wrath]

uhm, any suggestions on how i can get some more speed out of a celeron 700, on a asus cusi-m mobo, atm it has 512 mb of ram, and a few small hdd's. Just wondering what jumper settings i could try? or perhaps someone might know of a site of someone who's already done what im after..?

Ok all that ram you have might hold you back from a sweet OC because if it can't go above PC66 then it needs to be out of your board. I say the least to use for an OC is PC 133 ram. But moveing on to how to OC.

These are your jumper settings on that board

before you start overclocking you need to find out what the stepping is on your CPU. To find that out you will have to take off the heatsink and it will be a 5 digit combo of letters and numbers.
An example of your spec code would look like this: SL4P2
So once you find out what the scode is then then check it here to find the stepping of the CPU.

Also it would be nice to know what type of cooling your useing too.

If you have the celeron 700 retail box, the s-spec would also be on that.

You may be able to make changes to the bus speed in the bios/softmenu ("user defined" option). Have you already explored this option?

never used an Asus board, but I think many of the menus are similar to Abit's/Award bios.

Nahh pinky the board he is running is Jumpered on board not in bios

uhm, the cel did come a retail box, the cpu is 66mhz .. ; ( as for the ram it is pc133 hyundai, and as for the bios settings so far all i was able to get out of that was to set the the settings at
100/100 overclocked cpu/unclocked ram.. ? i think.. nothing else worked, mind you a change a setting on the mobo a while ago which set the processor to something like 1328 mhz, heh, the system booted then keeled over.

Ok on the box their is a side flap that has a white sticker on it the first line the last 5 letters and number combo is your S-spec code.

If you don't have the box then you'll have to pull the heatsink and check it on the CPU
