I have finally successfully Oclocked a CPU!!! Not by much mind you. I have an Athlon 850@900 in my spare box. If I had another monitor I'd still be at it, but I don't
Just one question, what is the default voltage for Athlons 850-1Ghz? Anyone know of the top of their heads? I think I have the voltage a touch high.
Ohh, and I couldn't really test for stability because I have no games currently loaded on the computer.
One funny sidenote, I almost toasted the whole works at one point. I hit the power button, but the box wasn't making nearly the racket as it should've been making. I look, and see I had forgotten to plug the CPU fans back in after changing the voltage. Yank the pulg real quick because I wasn't sure I had the 4 seconds for soft power down. Plug em in, reboot, and wipe my brow. Yes! It posted. Catastrophy averted.
