i have a 800 cleron overl****ed to 1.3 yes 1.3 I think i can go higher. I'm letting it burn it first. I think i can get it to 1.5
 
ABIT BF6
Celeron 266 (slot 1) @ 430 2.3v 58C load...I only run this @ 400 2.2v
3dFX VooDoo3
Lucent winmodem
64mb PC100 NANYA @ CAS2

Im sorry but i have to put this in here because im sooo proud of it.

Pentium 200MMX Overdrive chip
NEC motherboard
3dFX VooDoo2 (Black Magic) @ 110
64mb 60ns EDO
~~~~~~~~~This baby can play Quake3 @ 800X600 all the way up no problem.

I LOVE IT
 
slow pc hehe

I have a 366a @ 550
with a A bit BH6



I just got a P3 866 133 bus chip, a Asus CUSL2-C mobo and 256
Kingmax Pc-150 ram.
I cant installed it yet because I need a new sound card and modem that are PCI slots not ISA lame huh!
 
PIII 700 @ 994 MHz (1.95V)

Been running it for the past year and a half on my Soyo SY-6BA+IV. It's an FC-PGA cB0 stepping installed on an Iwill Slotket with an Alpha PEP66. Rock stable.
 
i gota 333CeleronA @416Mhz stupid mobo is at the max fsb... thats not my main rig but its my main Intel.... my main main rig is a 1GHz AXIA 266 Athlon Tbird @1.433GHz

and i gota 166Pentium running at 180Mhz hehe i got one of the cheaper ones that have to run at more voltage ect...
 
Still running my Lil' Cellie 566. I've just landed a job (a REAL one :) ) that pays decent, so this will be changing in the near future. Actually, Mr. B, I'd be interested in what you may suggest that I bump up to.

I'm not 100% sure what that board will support, but, the next logical choice would either be one of the P/// "E" chips (600, 700, 800) or one of the new 100FSB Celerons (800, 850, 900).

Ive read some really good stuff about those new Celerons....800 @1000+, 850 @ 1100+. Mindboggling stuff.

I just got a BE6 II, and have now gotten the chips in my "sig" to (I'm pretty sure stably) :

600E @ 993 MHz
700E @ 994 MHz

And I'll be danged if'n they both don't top out ONE FSB SHY OF THE GIG....EACH !!

**sigh** I can't win....LOL

Bear in mind, the P/// has a much more superior L2 cache, and will run a higher FSB, which increases memory bandwidth, etc...

It also is an unwritten guideline, that an overclocked Celeron is the equivalent of a P/// 150 to 200 MHz slower.

So those chips of mine are roughly equal to a Celeron clocked to 1150 to 1200MHz.....

In the end, that board you've got will have a large part in determining where you go from here (what will it support?? Any BIOS upgrades that will enable support for chips you can't run now??) Unless you upgrade the mobo too, in which case..... :D

P4 1.7 ASUS P4T @ 1870 Used for games and music. Have been to 2.0 but only for basic computing. Waiting for information for overclocking higher. Voltage tweaking on the P4t needs studying because there is a confusing discrepancy between Bios Hardware Monitor and the ASUS Probe program. Need your help Oh learned ones.

Really considering a complete rebuild. Probably just gut my Enlight and start from there :D
 
my first main build was a cel366-550 at 100fsb. put that into another build which i play with at work and upgraded my main to a cel533-850 at 100fsb or something like that. really getting interested in a 800 to push my abit be6-2 ata 66 to around 120 fsb with my preinstalled 133 ram just waiting for the day. should really see a perf change if i jack the processor and fsb at same time. curious whether the divisors on the pci and agp will be adequate.
 
yeah, that 533-850 was supposed to be the 566-850 at 100fsb. i knew it didn't look right but was in a hurry. : )
 
P4 1700@1869
stock heatsink/fan
waiting for watercooling
can not run anything that requires a heavy load on the cpu without it shutting down the app and returning to desktop
1785 best it'll do when running 3d apps
Pretty sure it'll go over 2000 with better cooling
 
I was running a 366@550 then a 566@850 and was able to hit 1004 with it pretty stable:mad:

Mr B

I did some quick tests with my Celeron 850 @ 1003 (using a SK6 now). I used Sandra CPU en MM benchmarks.
In both tests my 1003 was a little bit higher than a genuin P/// 1GHz. Although I'm unsure whether that is a 100MHz or a 133MHz FSB P///.
