ok, so after spending awhile reading thread after thread here and there, i finally get into the computer and do some tweaking. now because i'm too cheap to go buy a faster setup for no real good reason, i figure if i blow the processor, then i would.....lol. anyways, i have an athlon 1200 and pulled it, found out the L1 bridges were intact. i did not expect this. anyway, so i throw it back in and start with a benchmark on my system before i change anything, especially the cpu temp. after a few adjustments in the bios, my system runs as follows:
cpu: 1200>>>>1423
fsb: 133>>>>150
mult. 9.0>>>>9.5
temp: 38c>>>>41c
vcore: 1.75>>>1.85
vdimm: 2.60>>>2.80
now i have read where you could get up to 1550 on the processor, but it wouldn't boot on my system at that speed.
so, to see how this thing would run, i played bf1942 for 2 hours.......WOW......what a difference. oh, cpu temp stayed about 41.5 degrees during gameplay.
now to go get an athlon xp 2400!
