cellie 600 @ various fromm 675 with 77 fsb to 900 with boartd forced to 10 fsb
ATI RAGE xpert 2000 8mb
creative SB PCI
52x creative cd-rom
8x4x32 ide burner (r/rw)
elite group p6bxt-a+ board with slot 1 and ppga socket 370 (use 1 or other not @ same time unfortunatley!!!!!




What i need to know guys is that on my last OC'ing mission i had the same chip on an msi ms-6178 board and forced fsb to 100 from 66 via mobo jumper but though i got my chip defaulting @90 temps were 72c (smokin) so i got sold a double fan thermaltake fan which as u know is for athlon etc in socket 464 but silicon "expert" said it would fit snug on skt 370 which it didnt and caused death of 256mb ram and a board so i managed to get my new board cheap so i built into a new case with tidy mods (full size ATX with one panel perspex rounded data ribbons UV light and 3 xtra blowers on top with more UV ) looks good and i want to buck my chip back up to 9000 by making board 100 fsb but dont want repitition of last caper as in the end a cellie @900 would have cost me less..................Any thoughts guys on my best ,ove next??thanx and respect

Hi trapper,
Excuse me bu I don't understand what was your Celeron 600@900Mhz temps? 72 degree C?
First of all, forget the Thermaltake coolers, aren't good for the OverClock think, you need of an high performance HeatSink and of a thin layer of thermal paste, you must monitor the temp of your chip, I suggest MotherBoardMonitor, and if around 40 degree C, or less, @full load (100% load) and not Oced, you can try rising the Fsb from the original 66 to 100, and if not stable rise also a little the Vcore (Cpu voltage), but not over the 15% of the rated voltage.

I hope it helps you ;)

Was the heatsink a dragon orb by any chance? I know some p4 sinks will fit socket 370 if you change or mod the clip. I did that to one to fit my chip. But just stay away from orbs, they are notorious for killing cpus and sockets.
