Hi there
Had a play with a 1.2Ghz CPU which I got from OcUK. Manage to get it running stable at 1500Mhz with just air cooling, however my motherboard is limiting me due to it been the old KT7 series and not the new A series.
www.overclockers.co.uk
The system was stable enough to run Quake 3 looping for 1 hour @ 1500Mhz which I then quit as I am a busy person. Hopefully a new board will let me go further, but I am holding back for the right DDR board.
Breif system spec:
-----------------------
AMD Tbird 1.2Ghz @ 1.52Ghz (12.5x121)
ABIT KT7-RAID Motherboard
2 x 128Mb Crucial PC133 CAS2 Ram
Creative Geforce II Ultra 64Mb
Hauppauge WinTV Theatre card
SB Live 1024
CPUID:

Quake 3 v1.17
-----------------
Creative Geforce II Ultra was set at 290 core & 520 memory, this setting is 100% stable without any visual artifacts.
Quake 3 fastest with sound on LOW quality
with 4x AGP enabled
---------------------------------------------
640x480 - 200fps
800x600 - 196fps
1024x768 - 191fps
1280x1024 - 168fps
High Quality with Sound on LOW quality
& AGP 2x for stability
---------------------------------------------
800x600 - 178fps
1024x768 - 144fps
1280x1024 - 93fps
1600x1200 - 65fps
MAX Quality settings & Sound High quality
& AGP 2x
---------------------------------------------
800x600 - 160fps
1024x768 - 132fps
1280x1024 - 86fps
1600x1200 - 60fps
I am very happy with all the above, do look forward to seeing what improvements an DDR motherboard will offer.
SETI@Home Client v3.03 OcUK Benchmark WU
---------------------------------------------
Check out the following table, which is a specific benchmark WU provided by OcUK SETI Team, I am currently the SECOND
fastest machine on there with the CPU set @ 1475Mhz.
