I've got a slightly older computer set up for e-mail, etc. I've been wanting to squeeze a little bit more out of it (I *know* it can go higher than stock speed of 400..)
Here's what I've got:
Celeron 400 (assuming it's a Mendocino, Slot 1) @ 66*6
PCChips M767V (yes, it's not the best board)
The mobo does have a "CPU Plug-and-Play" BIOS option (gotta love it) and it will let you set the multiplier/FSB manually. Only problem is it doesn't appear to obey my multiplier adjustments It's always detected as a Celeron 400.
The FSB appears to be able to go up in approx. 9MHz increments. (66, 75, 83) Probably more like 9.25MHz.
I haven't tried to do anything with the FSB yet. Well, I did right when the computer was built, but that was a mistake (tried to set it to 100MHz since I thought the Celeron was a 100FSB chip.. my bad didn't post, reset the CMOS)
Any thoughts?
I'll let everyone know how raising the FSB goes..
*EDIT* Update: It's rock solid at 75MHz FSB (75*6=450, a 15% OC). It posts at 83MHz FSB, but refuses to boot into Windows. Probably the memory or the PCI bus that's hindering it there. The memory is actually PC100 (running at "PC75", previously running at PC66), so it might be the PCI bus.
The mobo is a fairly good OC'ing board, wish it would allow 1MHz increments though.. But you can't complain about a free +50MHz!
