Can't get away from AMD!

Mr_Fuchs · May 27, 2005

Just did a 600 dollar conversion from Athlon 64 to Intel-EMT (broke about even, by selling my AMD stuff)

So everything I have is intel.. or apple-

Someone is offering to trade me their 1.4thunderbird custom for a powerbook 1400 laptop.. I HAVE TO TAKE IT

What kind of overclocking can I expect from this ?

Why do you have to take it? I don't think I would- that powerbook would be much more usefull for me.

Mr_Fuchs · May 27, 2005

I have 3 of them, and it's 166mhz ...

damn... do it... if it's that old.. that's a steal
also consider that you have 3 :eh?:

Thunderbirds were heat monsters and generally didn't overclock very well if stock was over 1.2ghz, especially those at the upper speeds like the 1.4ghz (top speed Thunderbird).

I agree.

Oh, ok, I though when you said 1400 you ment the clock speed

JDXNC · May 29, 2005

Quite a few of the 1.4 Tbirds could do 1.6GHz, which is pretty respectable, especially considering the sweat deal you have on it. You will need a good heatsink on it if you plan to OC it. An older SLK-700/800 would be great but even an SK6 won't do too bad. Those chips can take a lot of heat.

yikes a 200 mhz jump -- i'm trying to barter it off for parts to a shuttle system with a cube case

you ever thought about selling one of those powerbooks? :santa:

Mr_Fuchs · May 30, 2005

they are only worth around 100 bucks

keep in mind that frys electronics was selling a xp2200+ machine for $100.
