Vid Pin wrapping == Stability

[RickShelton]

I did the Vid Pin wrap on my P4 1.6a details here > http://forum.oc-forums.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=74707
I only did Vid4 and Vid3 for a default voltage of 1.70 and I now can clock it at 2.4ghz with no problems whereas before even with the Bios set at 1.70 volts I could only go 2.35 ghz. I know this isn't alot, but It made my system more stable. Now get those pins wrapped

Glad to hear yet another VID pinning success story (especially since that was my article you followed) . Those Northwoods sometimes seem to hit a "wall" at some point when overclocking unless you can increase the CPU core voltage. For those who are considering this mod, please don't forget you'll need better than average cooling first. Happy overclocking.
