Forgot to mention running it with only 220w P.S.
Have several 144 and Jetway combo's, and all easily Prime95 at 2700MHz.

The 3000+ venice had it running 340x9=3060mhz

I think the fastest pII at the time was 450
That's about par for a good Malaysia chip. A friend of mine (was Nowhereman here on Anandtech forums... now nowhere to be found thanks to a permanent lifetime ban from here ) had one that would run for a few minutes at a time at 600MHz - a full 100% overclock, on his Abit BH6 and using a dual fan cooler from some defunct place in Florida (CoolerGeeks or something, sold HSFs that were standard heatsinks with extra fans bolted on, plus were first to market a sandwich cooler for Celerons). His "trick" was to toss the sucker into the freezer, HSF and all. After an hour or so, pop it into the motherboard, turn it on, pump FSB to 133MHz, reboot, enjoy for a few minutes.
