Celeron 1200 wire wrap info request

[Ohdannnyboy]

Can someone point me to a link which details the wire wrap voltage default for my cel 1200 (which has been ordered-due in Tuesday Jan 3) MB will be Asus TUSL2-C.

I saw info detailing this with pictures --- but now can't seem to locate it.

I plan to retire my Cel 600 @ near 1 Gig on ABIT BX6-r2 with Asus slotket. Homemade watercooling with refrigerated antifreeze/water from my freezer in the garage.

I'll start with the (air) retail cooler first then who knows. But I understand that the default voltage must be a little higher in order to boot into BIOS at the faster FSB speeds. Something about it has to use the "default" chip voltage just to get the BIOS to take effect before it can detect the BIOS voltage setting you specified there.

Thanks for any info or help --- Hoping to set this one up right the first time!!

I know exactly how to do it but you have got to understand some things with that board. You will not get 1/4 dividers under 134fsb. That being said unless you have a chip that will do 134fsb you will be limited to 1500MHz at best! Since you got H2O cooling your chances of hitting 134fsb will be increased greatly.

First off I would get the new bios and try that for your vcore increase to a max of 1.7v and if that don't allow you to hit 134fsb then you can do the wiretrick. It has been said many times now here. Do a search please as it will allow one to not have to repeat repeat repeat repeat the same thing over and over again.

All your questions have been answered before here just simply do a search!

Is the VID1 connected to the VID2(thus connecting it to VSS) Yielding V=1.675 ARE THERE other pins I might consider for even higher defaults. On the negative side there seem to be some reports that any higher v's past 1.675 don't help ?

I'll set it up to run 1200 first... then do you think I should go straignt to 134 when I first try for OC'ing? So the 1\4 divider will keep PCI and AGP in reasonable limits.
My components all work @ 41.6 AGP/PCI since that was a step I went thru with this Abit board with a Cel 300 @ 540.

Do you know if the TUSL2-C will run SoftSFB which allows (on BX6r2) booting at a more reasonable speed then after windows 98 starts I change FSB in software.

Also do you know of anyone who has removed the heat spreader without breaking the CPU. It appears, to me, that may be improved upon, if it can be removed without damage, by using a copper or silver cold plate with water cooling.

I'll use the air retail for a week or so while I mfg a new water block for the 1200 chip, since I presently am using direct water on the 600 chip, with no cold plate at all, and don't plan to continue that approach. I thought is to convert a heat sink to water operation.

Any help appreciated. But I didn't read this board until tonight..already ordered the ASUS board, and didn't realize it had some limitations which you caution about.

I remove my IHS's only cause I use a HS. If you are going to H2O cool I would keep it on as it will help protect the core. You will have to make a very good shim with which I make mine from tape and it works flawlessly but I wouldn;t try and set a H2O block on it and clamp it down hard.

As for higher vcores not helping the OC? I think that is dependent on the cpu. Each one is different! You will just have to find out your self. I found 1.7v to be the most stable vcore for my new .13u celery but on my older one 1.85v was okay too but the new one probaly wouldn't like that as much.

If you connect vid 1 to vid 2 you will hit your max at 1.825v which with H2O cooling should be more than enough.
