*NOTE* DO NOT TRY THIS. IT COULD SERIOUSLY DAMAGE YOUR PROCESSOR AND/OR OTHER COMPONENTS *NOTE*
Currently, I am running a Pentium 4 1.8A Northwood w/ the stock heatsink (non sunflower), without its fan (a 92mm in its place), and Arctic Silver 3, at 2556mhz. How? Here is how:
IF YOU ARE PLANNING ON COPYING ME, STOP READING NOW. I AM NOT RECCOMENDING THIS TO ANYBODY.
Basically, I did a v-pin mod to se the Voltage default to 1.85v. Now, instead of a Single wire loop, which tends to be loose, I got a long wire and doubled it.
Then, I enabled JUMPER MODE, and got a copy of the P4T manual (i had one lying around, good thing i used to use Socket 423 ), and set the jumpers to an FSB of 142 (highest stable, 144 would boot but was unstable in benchmarks, same with 145). Now remember, I have some mods on this heatsink which are listed above. Here are the current stats:
P4 NW 1.8 @ 2.556ghz, Idle 90F, Full 105F (32C - 41C)
Asus P4T-E, Front Side Bus 142mhz
PC800 RDRAM running at 426mhz (3x speed)
I also have a fan (crappy 60mm) blowing air away from the motherboard and it is lying next to the CPU, on top of the ram, and over the northbridge. I also have another 60mm fan blowing air into one of the sides of the HSF assembly to guarantee that the air will go to the other gan. My 2 HDDs (IBM 75GXP w/ heatsink and some maxtor drive) also have a fan blowing onto them.
AGAIN DO NOT TRY IT AT HOME!!!!!!
*Addition* When it was Overclocked to 110FSB, the CPU temperature at full was lower than the motherboard temperature. That should tell u this is a very good processor.
