hi,
i have the same processor as in the following review (athlon xp 2600 barton 1.92ghz)...
in this review, the reviewer can easily overclock the processor to over 2.1ghz with no voltage modifications, yet i can only barely reach 2070mhz without instability and rounding errors in the prime95 torture test at around 2090mhz it resets (i'm using the nvidia system utility)
my cpu temps are 37c when browsing/e-mail and no higher than 51c when gaming for hours...i have an msi k7n2 mobo
i feel a little disappointed--could it be my fault or could i have simply been unlucky this time?
btw. could this limit be due to my 300w psu?
any help would be appreciated
