I've been looking around at the new t-bird Athlon and from what I've gathered so far, you have to pencil in a bridge to be able to over clock these chips. Is there a website that shows exactly where this pencil mark is supposed to go? Also is a Thermaltake Super Orb cooling fan assembly adequate for over clocking these high end T-birds?

http://www.tomshardware.com/cpu/00q3/000711/index.html has a good guide on the L1 pencil trick - I've done it on my duron, worked fine, but you may have to try a few times to get it right. Also look at http://www.icon.co.za/~prozesky/tip001.htm - Proze's site.

a conductive pen is the best way to connect the bridges , stay away from the orbs, I've had two and they really don't perform very well. alpha pep, global win ,and my two favorites the hedgehog and swiftech are the best fans, if you hate noise choose the smaller fan option not the delta
