I finally got my MSI K7T Turbo replacement after sending the damn thing in 3 times (which took a total of 4 months.... :mad: bad bad bad MSI :mad: ). I installed my unlocked red core ANCA Duron 950 and a stick of Kingston VR 512 mb PC133 CL3. First I tried running it 9.5x133(266), it booted but got too hot and crashed before loading Windows. Next I tried running it 10x100(200) and it booted, seemed stable as a rock. So I kept going and wound up running it 11x100 (what it's running now). The temps are 'ok' @ 48 C idle 52 C full load. Would be nice if I had something better than this cheap Collermaster DP5-6H51. But hey, as soon as I get a better hsf, I'll probably be able to pull off some slightly faster speeds. On another note, be very wary when you buy an MSI product. If you can't get a warranty service through your vendor, then forget it. MSI's RMA department is a joke.

I can't move my Duron 750 above 110 fsb. But I have crappy ram
My Cheap ECS mobo gives me a much better o/c with the same cpu...
