I got my 1.4 GHz T-Bird and Epox 8KTA3 Pro mobo the other day and wanted to overclock the heck out of it. Well, I feel that I did:

I ran it up to 1.61 GHz (11.5*140)!! I put it an additional exhaust fan to get the heat out and it's great! It runs 39c at idle and 44c with a load.

The problem is now I want more... Is that typical?? :)

Good overclock there, and yes it is normal to want more.

Just be careful, I wanted more and fried 256mb of ddr.
