Duron OC questions

MrSniffles · 29-January-05, 12:29 PM

I just recently got a free rig and want to OC it, my understanding is that the duron 900s are good OCers.

Heres the total specs:

AMD Duron 900mHz
MSI K7T266 PRO VER1.0
256mb DDR kingston Value ram (fixing soon to more and better ram)
will be running XP
and has just a cheapy coolermaster HSF (60mm fan and quiet so it cant be good

)

How far can i push it as its listed above crappy ram and HSF wont get replaced at least till tax time

. I also dont know what i need to do to OC it there is nothing in the bios to OC it i could find. My ASUS board for my P4 has a menu for it in the bios so that was easy but Im not sure how to do this one.

Thanks
Sniff

From the sound of it with that board you wont be able to. I havenÃ‚â€™t worked with that board any so IÃ‚â€™m not sure if you can or not. But with the fan that you have the ram and the board youÃ‚â€™re not going to be able to get much out of it if any.

Look harder in the BIOS, or for jumpers on the motherboard. Read the motherboard manual. If you still can't figure it out, look for a review for that board.

The post from a week ago was for the video card not the CPU. i figured id post in the right forum for the CPU question thats all.

I didnt think i would get much from it givin the hardware on it now but i just thought id ask pimps with more knowledge and experance than I. I didnt even think to look for jumpers, now that it was mentioned my friend brought it up about a month or two ago.
