CPU - AMD 1.33 AXIA (AYHJA Core)
Mem- Crucial 256 pc2100
Vid - MSI Geforce 2 Pro 64 mb
Sound - Philips Acoustic Edge
HD - 2 X 30 gb 7200 maxtor running in 0 raid

So how does everyone feel about that box... I am new to overclocking but i would like to oc that cpu to 1400 or 1500... if anyone can respond with suggestions or opinions of the above hardware that would be great.. and if anyone could point me in the right direction for info/instuctions on overclocking that would be great too... Thanks guys
