I am testing my overclocked cpu, currently at 1400, and I was wondering how AMD (or Intel) check's them.
I guess that an AMD 1, 1.1 and 1.2 are basically the same and a test tells them what speed they can do.
What programs are they using or is it a hardware based setup or ....?????
Thanks
Big Lar, I'm sure your setup is good.
I just don't have the guts to make my own setup therefore I bought the Vapochill.
And to be honest, I also bought it to make some friends **really** jealous ;-)
(Mine is bigger than yours and so on...)
shiznut123, they don't 'unlock' it.
It is unlocked as standard, but cpu's with a lower Mhz-rating where locked by cutting the l1-bridges. By doing this you could not change the multiplier yourself. (unless you do the pencil trick)
For all those who are wondering if the 1.2 is unlocked or not, here's a picture.

Actually I've never heard about - or seen - a 1.2 that was locked!
(To be honest I've only seen 1 but heard about 20 or so LOL)
If Compaq would sue everyone that said some bad things about their PC's .....
Instead of this 'I haven't got a case but I'll sue you anyway' bullsh*t, they better put their efforts into something else.
If (a BIG if!) they can prove that MikeWarrior is wrong with his results I am sure that MW...
Next week I'll buy myself an Atlon 1.2 and a new KT133A Mb (probably Abit KT7).
Since I plan to do some serious overclocking (I'll buy a Vapochill also!) I'll need some excellent memory.
Problem is that I can't find PC150 memory in Europe.
Anyone knows a place where I can buy them or some...
