first OC xp 2000+ newbie

[redface]

Got any Coolermaster?

I went for the "Thermaltake Extreme Volcano 12 Athlon XP 3400+ 5500 rpm procesor Cupru".
Hope I made a good decision.

That Heatsink should cool that Athlon XP 2000 , really good

Got it at STABLE 2075 Mhz 12,5X166 on my crappy PSU
Proc temperature 37 Celsius

Question: Why won't it post if i raise the fsb more than 166 even on an 8 multiplier ?

 

[dead_man311]

2075Mhz is a nice oc and the temps are really good to , not sure why it wont go more it could be your chips limit

That is a pretty nice oc so u know that is higher then what i curently have 2.05 im shooting for 2.33 tonight with a pin mod(hope it works i have the vcore part of it done atm but the multi part didn't work last night) So yeah good going. Normally i would say stay away from anything THERMALTAKE(cooling wise) as they have gotton more flash then actul go to them or so it seems they are getting ovr rated i think but it was the best cooler on that list so good choice!!
