I had a 1.2 Ghz Axia Chip on a Pal 8045 for about 3 months. I cannot even get it to run 1 mhz past 1400 stable.

But With the Koolance, I am running now at 1460 and its keeping my CPU at 27 C full load!

The key to this case is you need to Ventilate it well. My KT7A is sensitive to heat so I installed a back exhaust fan and put a Bay cooler with 3 small fans blowing in. The Results are incredible!

I have been running Prime 95 at 1460 for 8 hours now. I am going 4 more and turn it up to 1470.....

I was wondering how you could only go 1MHz more with the speed. Maybe you meen FSB? I noticed my machine goes up by 12MHz incremints cause of the locked 12x multi with each 1MHz FSB incremint:D

I did not mean literally 1 mhz. Was making more of a general point. The CPU just will not work over 1.4 Ghz before....
