General problems when change the FSB: With 🙁 or without fixed multiplier 🙂 overclocking is still possible !!! The most recent problem with fixed multiplier is that you have to change the Front Side Bus frequency. But changing the FSB will result in higher pci, AGP and HDD-Controller frequency !!! I realised the higher controller frequency painful last week on my Asus P3B: My CPU run fine at 124 x 4,5 = 558 MHz, ASUS has two choices to set … Continue reading Intel FSB overclock

MSI K7T Turbo VCORE MOD
It’s also very easy to increase the Vcore of MSI K7T Turbo by soldering just one resistor to the right point to allow your CPU much higher frequency. Of course it’s necessary to be very careful if you’re soldering something on your mainboard in order not to kill your board. And of course your warranty void if you solder anything on your mainboard ! Therefore i recommend a good grounding and a soldering station with seperate grounding ! Before you … Continue reading MSI K7T Turbo VCORE MOD

Highest overclocking results with AMD Athlon
Highest overclocking results with Athlon: At this time the Athlon is the best overclockable CPU. But why is it possible to overclock this CPU so easy ? 99% of the Athlon core is much higher than labeled outside, my two first Athlon 500 have 650 cores inside. If you compare the price of the Athlon 500 and 650 Athlon it’s unbelievable what AMD put inside their CPUs. We don’t know the exact reason why AMD gives their customers this joy. … Continue reading Highest overclocking results with AMD Athlon

Intel Pentium 3 FSB change to overclock
How to change Pentium III FSB above 100MHz: If you can’t change the FSB of your mainboard but wan’t to overclock this CPU with 133 MHz FSB you have to cover up pin A14 with a adhesive tape or nail varnish to pretend an 133MHz CPU. It’s easy to locate this pin – over these pins are some small numbers like A1, A73, A74, A121. just count from the left Pin on the frontside 14 steps to the right pin. … Continue reading Intel Pentium 3 FSB change to overclock
Calculate the p-rating of an AMD Athlon XP CPU
It should be known that an AMD Athlon XP 1600+ CPU doesn’t run with 1600 MHz … by default 😉 but who likes to calculate all the P-ratings ? From now on it’s unnecessary to search for the right one, or set a wrong CPU frequency, because i’ve published a new very easy to use interactive P-Rating calculator. Just type in the P-Rating or the CPU frequency and you’ll get the result.
Power supply issues if you overclock your Athlon on eg. ASUS K7M
Power supply issues when overclock your Athlon on K7M: You may get problems in overclocking your Athlon if you have small power supply unit !!! There’s a big label on your ASUS mainboard manual to use at least a 235W supply, but several pages later there is an other comment to use only above 250W – hmmm. It’s not a big difference between these values but it may be enough to get an instable Windows ! If you recall my … Continue reading Power supply issues if you overclock your Athlon on eg. ASUS K7M
Step by step guide how to cut and paint the Athlon XP / Morgan bridges
Step by step guide how to cut and paint the AMD Athlon XP, Morgan, T-Bred,etc bridges: If you’ve already looked at the AMD Athlon XP Processor or at the XP painting guide, you’ve noticed that the OPGA (Organic Pin Grid Array) CPU isn’t a ceramic CPU. Cut the bridges: Because of the softer ground it’s much easier to cut these bridges and unlike the older ceramic CPU’s you don’t need to spend lot’s of time on this modification. Usually you … Continue reading Step by step guide how to cut and paint the Athlon XP / Morgan bridges
