lol it's the family comp...if it was mine, it'd be at least running at 2ghz. But if i kill it, they kill me so 1.8 will have to do. At least now I can have a justified reason for hanging out here at overclockers.com!

The sad part is that this is true!

The only reason you need to hang around here is that you wana learn more about computers. If you have an O\C'ed computer it just makes you special lol

Congratulations and welcome to the addiction! This should have actually been put in the AMD section so: Please read the threads *Please* Place posts in the proper catagory and enough is enough-this means you thanks. Just thought I would try to help Larva out a bit.

Did you check for stability lol.
I give you 1 week before you raise that clock. Its a drug once you start you dont stop...youll push it! and dont fight that urge, it only gets harder to resist. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE - CLOCK THAT MOFO!

i'm gonna try to o/c my other palomino to 166 bus, i just want the ram to be at 1:1 because the mem divider kills performance. a/w, i gave up on o/c the core of that chip but you gave me new hope!

well, the palomino overclock didn't take long to give up again locked multi at 12.5, would love 166 fsb but not gonna happen unless i do a wire trick or something, will look into that later but as i recall last time i tried to overclock that chip it was unstable with 1 mhz added to fsb in prime.

I remember my first overclock, getting 150hmz out of my PIII 500.

Good Job

Contrats to you. FYI, it's a palomino, so it won't o/c too much. You will be lucky if you can get an extra 300Mhz out of it.
