Default Athlon XP-1700 @ 2.1ghz w00t 4 me

sorry for starting a crap thread about this, but im too damn excited to contain it, got my new MSI K7N2G mobo from Lokie today and got it all hooked up, slapped my XP-1700 JIUHB in that bish, and went to town seeing just how far this thing would go for me...

heres the result...@39C cpu temp.....

my old 3dmark 01 score was always just over 10,000 and now they are actually around 12,000 so heres a link to one of my good runs, and i know i can get over 12,000 with a little more video card overclocking...

http://service.futuremark.com/servle...jectId=6476985

one more thing, to get this overclock, i had to bring the multiplier up to 12, and the vcore up to about 1.75, and the DIMM voltage to about 2.7, however, my ram is still running at stock speed but with all aggressive timings and no errors / issues / instability at all, can get it up to 333mhz without error with docile timings but that didnt yield the results i wanted, sooo.......

anyway, someone from here said i wouldnt be able to get past 2ghz with a 300 watt psu, and i did, so id also like to give them Be0TcH status as of now...

anyone else been as lucky or luckier than i have with this cpu?

(i know higher overclocks are attainable but after ~178mhz system clock, windows hangs and reboots regardless of vcore or DIMM voltage / timings)

a $7 speeze 80mm aluminum cooler, and i think newegg still has the cpu for around $48 US, so get them while you can, they wont be available forever...will add more to this post when i find out for sure...so expect an edit or two....

EDIT:

heres the fan, looking for the cpu now...


http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproduc...ion=35-150-010

EDIT: OMG YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!!

http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproduc...ion=19-103-351

THATS $43 SHIPPED FOR SOMETHING THAT CAN EASILY HIT OVER 2GHZ

GRRR...WHY do I not have ANY MONEY? ....blast... I will find a way to get some money and buy this chip. Do you have heat spreaders on your ram or anything? I noticed that you have straight pc-2100.

Maybe I can pawn off my 1.4 ghz to someone here at school..

then you guys will love this, heres my cpu versus some very nice pentium 4 flavors and an Athlon xp-1800 since the 1700 wasnt in the comparison list (kinda ironic that i have to "settle" for what would normally be a better cpu then the one thats kickin its ass), none of which seem to do any damage...

actually man, its more along the lines of 678mhz overclock

and id say $43 for a cpu that can hold hands down the dragstrip with a ---->>> 2 . 8 gigahertz <<<--- pentium 4...there really isnt a whole lot to say here, do whatever you can to get your hands on one, good luck, and god speed...

Fantastic!
Looks like I might try for that cpu at that speed vs price.

I might try it on this board by Soltek

oh ya, thats the big thing, you are kinda taking a chance, if memory serves me correctly, all the "A" cores have been phased out and all that are left are the "B", i figure, take a chance on something like this, its worth it, i bought mine when it was $60, and when the A cores were notoriously common, and i still got a B, so your mileage may vary...

and my temps top out at 44C under load, not too bad when considering the voltage / mult / fsb

So, what would be the difference in o/c ability from the "A" core to the "B" core?
