how high did u OC ur CPU?????

[wtp]

kewl, i was planning to get ASUS too, i guess it's a pretty good brand to rely on huh?? Well yes, Asus it is..

[cpucook]

FIC VA503+
128mb pc100 cas2
AMD k6-2 450 OC to 506
5x 100
default voltage 2.4
new voltage 2.6 (only way it runs stable)
stock heat sink, with a power supply fan
replacing the stock one.
Runs stable in Win98. I have not found a program that locks up....even Unreal runs faster(that suprised me!).
I have no temp readings....but I know it's too hot, there is a blister on my finger where I touched the heat sink to check the temp......guess I need a bigger heat sink, but the stock one is GLUED on....came out of the sealed AMD box that way. I tried to pry it, but wimped out...it's really stuck!! I've booted at 550 (5.5x 100, 2.7v)Win98 ra fine....but it's WAAAAAAAAY too hot, so I dropped to 506.

ANY info on removing the stuck heat sink would be a treat!! I think it's epoxy, not the pad.

Also, I have an Intel 133mmx @ 233 (3.5x 66)
AMI PC100 mobo
64mb 66Mhz sdram
stock heat sink, no fan....runs Win98 & every program I have stable.

If it blistered you finger then it will kill your chip soon and it could also burn out the on die 64kb cache...back it up a bit till you get a better heatsink unless you can afford another chip . Try using a sharp razor blade and worh it in between the heatsink and slug at each corner as you would to get the cap off. Here is a link that may explain a bit btter. Good luck

Couldn't get the heatsink+fan combo I wanted, but I got a nice one from JMC Products, called k701.
Unfortunately, my 550 can go no further than 700. At 750 and 800, it kept restarting my computer in quake3.

550@700(1.8v) FreeSpeed.
400k6-2@450
g400(16mb) oc'ed 125.5%

what motherboard should i get for a celery?? 450???

[RalphArch]

standard 366a C at 550 in abit bh6 2.0 v

300a C at 450 in PCCHIPS LMRTM748 all-in-one at 2.05 v on the slotkey

CyrixMII PR300 (66x3.5) close to PR366 settings (100x2.5 - running 95x2.5 due to random reboots once every couple days at 100)DFI K6BV3+ at rated voltage

All perfectly stable without any special cooling.

I've got my 466 running at 696:

This is on ABIT BE6 II, Slot1 Alpha, a 58W TEC and 2,3V core. I expect to hit 750 or 800 when the watercooler is up and running. For more info, you could visit my site at www.duckmanswildpage.com

[wtf]

p3 500 {not e or eb}, at 620
abit bh6 {nor rev.}
pc100 ram
stock cooling
no fans blowing on cpu
only fan i think is blowing out

[wtp]

my friend is getting an alpha, imagine that OVERCLOCKING he could do with that much coldness!!!!

[Missing the point]

Hey WTF, if your not into games, and maily use your computer for RC5, you could disable the L2 Cache, and go to 667. I got the same processor, and I can get to 667 with no L2 Cache

[wtp]

100!!! well uhm.. the alpha blows COLD AIR, and the heatsink is INCREDIBLE, order it!!! he can get 500@625 easily with that (PIII)

[Palleman]

Athlon 600 @ 754, 1,85V with Freespeed card
Dualfans spinning at 5000rpm with heatsink
K7M mobo with BIOS v1.28
temp. Have no idea. Much less with my nes case (A-open wirh 2 extra 6500rpm fans =)

[jadison]

I had my K62-500 running @ 550 with the Epox MVP3C-M, 5*100MHz, with large heatsink/fan and case off, but unfortunately every time I opened Word 2000, or a couple of other progs. it would freeze or restart, I had the voltage set @ 2.2, then 2.3V but the puter wouldn't hold up!
So I have it back down to 500...I can't seem to even OC my K62 500!!

Duckman: I was thinking about getting a Abit BF6 with a Celeron 466, and OC'ing it, but is the BE6-2 a better OC'er for the Celeron 466??!!?? It seems like urs is running pretty well.
reply soon

Lets see:

System 1:
ABIT BF6
PII-400
FSB 136
CPU Speed 544
256 Meg generic PC100
Runs a bit on the warm side (33C to 47C) with Coolerstar PII 2 fan/heat sink setup. Tried a 3 fan Peltier Cooler (Coolerstar), but my power supply couldn't keep up with the load.

System 2:
Soyo 6BA+IV
PIII-600e
FSB 137
CPU Speed 822
256 Meg PC133 CAS 3
Runs cool (28C to 33C)with an Artic Cooler SECC2 (Golden Orb)

Next week I'll be putting System 3 together:
Soyo 6VCA
PIII-700e
256 MEG Mushkin PC133 CAS2
Vantec P3D 5030 Cooler

Don't know what I'll get out of it, but I'll give it a try
