I finally decided to vidpin my Celeron 600 (cB0). Discovering that if you vidpin for a lower CV, you'll have higher options in BIOS (thanks outhouse! ). I think I'll go for 1.65v. (the max I can get right now is 1.7v)

So my question is if I have this thing right. For 1.65v I've connected VID1 and VID0 to VSS.

I did this on an old P1 to practice. This is not the best job in the world, but will something like that be ok if I make it neater next time?

Yes the pins are right for 1.50v default to 1.65 vidpinned.
The wires look a little loose. *shrugs*

I kinda was thinking the same... but they did survive the installation (This pic was taken after I put it on the mobo, locked it, and took it off later)
I'll try making it better when I do it for real.

If you can try to find some old headphone's and rob the wires from the cord, you wires look a little thicker then mine. What I found out is that if you use fine wire and wrap it in a figure eight pattern and then try to tie it in a knot [lots of luck I think mine is just wrapped around a few times on one of the pin's] it will look allot better when your done. I think at this point you probably have it installed and running, let us know how you ended up.

Thanks for replying everyone!

I vidpinned today, and it was easier than I thought! I did 1.65v. But now for some reason it takes longer to boot to windows, but thats probably because I have crappy ME, and the regestry is completely messed. Before I could boot @ 900MHz, but it will crash after about 15 mins. Now when it boots I get BSOD. I'll try burning in.

I might vidpin to 1.9v a bit later.

Now I am one more person who can help someone else to vidpin!

Does your motherboard not allow for any cpu voltage increase?

After vidpinning it does, the max I can get is 1.85v. But it doesn't seem to be enough...

probably burning in will help.

I didnt think it was possible to pin a cBo to anything lower then 2.05V? (on of the pins are internally disconnected) I know cCo's have a lot of opstions though.

Anything between 1.70 and 1.85 volts requires VID2 to be disconnected from Vss (cutted! and absolutly not suggested), but all the others, in the range 1.55v-2.05v are free
Before vid Pinning mine C2 600 cB0 I can set a max voltage of 1.7v and after no more than 1.95v, but all depends by the Bios.

Those were the two guides that I've used...

Make sure you follow all of the steps on Newbie_Doo's webpage. (like Reset CMOS)

Good Luck!

Before I had the Celeron 566 wire wrapped for a default VCore of 1.65V. That was a CB0, so yes, it is possible!
