Hi guys, Just to re-assure the guy who wondered a couple of nights ago if I was still alive, yep I am, and so is my PC (which given my recent overclocking trials is perhaps surprising). The AMD K6-3/400 chip in my machine is running happily at 450 but I did try earlier today to up the multiplie

Thanks Shawn, I've joined deja.com and found several groups with fascinating and relevant discussions. You may consider me suitably chastised and all further CPU and related questions will go there. Indeed I may now very rarely post to md-l except when I have something "interesting" to offer.

Thanks guys, I'm now running the K6-3/400 at 450mhz (clocked at 4.5x 100 bus) and it is perfectly stable. The CPU temp is only a couple of degC higher than before (now 43 degC). I can't really notice much difference but well... I guess its doing something. Next time (probably a week or so) I'

[To avoid arguments, pls reply direct to me, not thro md-l] Hi, I guess most of us here are highly intelligent guys (?) so I thought I'd throw this question to you. It is sorta relevant as more processor power helps with MP3 crunching. I want to overclock my CPU, but using the BIOS setup opti
