Yes, mine is somit like that...my CPU is definitely 1.85. Mem I'm not sure but its +0.70
Give it a shot if you wish

I only want to get it up to 1.53 (xp 1800?) since that is the highest my heatsink/fan can support.
XP1800...yes.Quote:

Don't worry about what it says on the box. If your temperatures are low, keep going. if you live in an Icebox, your cooler could not even be certified for 1Ghz but it might run fine. Kalicki for example has an 80cfm fan on his Duron 800 and his temps are still about 30-somit C..because his room is hot as hell.
Depends on the environment largely.
my temp as of this moment is 40C how high will it go at 1800 roughly. and does this small OC decrease my comps life span?
Only your processor, if anything. How long do you plan on keeping this chip?Quote:

Overclocking won't decrease the life of the chip, high temperatures are what does it. If you get a bad ass cooler it'll keep your temps low.
I'd say 40C is about reasonable, it's what I'm getting.
but your getting 40c OC i am normal
Well my cooler is better than yours :pQuote:

Only one way to know for sure..take it up to 1.53 and look at your temps.
How long you plan on keeping this chip for?
Ok
Vcore registers 1.85, mem is 2.7
I did fsb at 140
So its going at 1.47 ghz temp is 43 C
what is the best method of cooling your CPU (well without going all out and getting a big a$$ water cooling system) :p, i have an aluminum heat sink about 3 cm high, would it be worth my while to get another heat sink? if so could you reccomend one? then added the fans in my case it made it alot cooler in there but it didn't cool my CPU fan down any (mainly because the CPU fan is near some ventilation holes and gets most of its air from my room), ayn good, quite fans that i could stick in there? right now it is around 50 and i think i might try overclocking if ican get the CPU temp down more.
Wait a minuute...isn't this a 1.47 gig chip to begin with...so if the FSB is 140 how's it at 1.47 gig :confused:Quote:

Heh your right :) so at 140 fsb its 11 * 140 which i 1540 ? which is as fast as the 1800? but on sandra soft test the 1800 was ahead.
