Is it possible to OC Dual CPU's and/or a single CPU on a Dual CPU MB? In particular, I am thinking of OC'ing Dual PIII 1GHz/256/133/1.75V SL5FQ socket 370 CPU's on a PCChips M790MR MB. I also haven't discovered how to change the voltage settings on PCChips M754LMR and M790MR MB's to accomodate higher multipliers / bus speeds with acceptable stability.

Been overclocking dual 533 Celerons for quite a while now, on an Abit BP6. The two CPUs weren't a matched set, so one tends to perform better than the other. The bad one keeps me from getting higher than 600.

AUTigerUSCTrojn:cpu choice---

Look for one that has a bus speed of 100 instead of 133 flavor. I assume you are looking for a p3.They have more overclock head room(100 to 130?145?) Also consider dual tualatin's with powerleap? They have an advantage of being a die shrink and should overclock better. I'm waiting on my dual mobo asus p3c-d. from fleabay! I'm still pondering using dual p3 1.13ghz 100 ofcourse.
:cool:
