How much is the top clock speed you have gained from an OC ?

Mine was 50Mhz (jubii) when i OC'ed my AMD K6-2 500Mhz @ 550Mhz and its stabil.
PM5K
351MHZ

Celeron 627 @ 978
Mr Magoo
100mhz from 90 mhz....!!!!!!!!! thats lame i know...
AceHigh
I had my old duron 650 at 1.05 gig.

My 1.33 t-bird at 1.5

Wow nice going Ace!

I got mine 50Mhz up by playing around with the jumpers on the mobo...hehe...that was easy 50Mhz.

Had a Celeron 300A at 464.

I have had my t-bird 1.2 at 1.75 (stable), but run it at 1.6. (see sig)

I had my old XP1500+ running at 1.63GHz till I sold it. Trying to save up some money so I can build up a new system now.

750 t/b @ 933 icon_cry.gif crap I know so I'm going to get a 1700+ next week icon_biggrin.gif
efishta
well my Athlon 850 OC'ed to 900 but then I quit doing it cause it kept rebooting (thanx to XP's "reboot rather than freeze" attitude... power supply problems no doubt, same things happens very very rarely when I'm using a 3D app or playing a game, the video card just gets too much for the power supply.

whats the PSU on?

i have my t-bird 1200@~1400 with an ordinary HSF, with a small fan blowing into it.
~39C idle
~43C work

Athlon 1133 @ 1250. STill working on that though :wink:

Update

Now @ 1275. Need to unlock to go higher and keep stability.

No multiplier option in BIOS that I can find?!?!?!

dan here next to me has his t-bird athlon 900 at a little over 1100, and cooled with your basic volcano 7, he rarely gets temps over 41deg c! not bad, i think.

I was able to make my 1.33 T Bird go to 1.56.

Had to back it down after a few days,it started running unstable.

Steadily running at 1.40ghz icon_biggrin.gif

Due to a slight mishap (see this thread here), I have now got my new 1700+ @ 1616. See sig for cooling details.
I am folding 24/7, and have got my times down to 12 1/2 minutes while working. When puter is idle, my fold times per frame are about 9.5-10 minutes. Still a bit slow for the speed I am running though.

1.4 T-bird @ 1.65 stable so far, I haven't pushed it any harder yet. icon_eek.gif

Got my new 1700+ running a 1674Mhz that's an increase of about 207mhz..... stupid mobo won't give me a muliplier of 12.5.... but still working on it.... need to up the Vcore to go faster icon_eek.gif

Ok im not big fan off o/c. Well only because my machine is hot enough,
But i did a total 48mhz Athy XP 1.6 usual clock 1.4 i got it too 1.48, heheh icon_redface.gif

I am also not a big fan of O'C,I take the approach of "if it ain't broke,don't fix it".

I have been able to run this chip to 1560mhz,but is not stable.So I decided to back off to 1400.

My stance on o/c
Overclocking is can be good, Overclocking can be fun. But as soon as you over do it your gonna be in tears.
Like eventually when my machine gets a tad old and rusty i will boost it up. But for now ill just do small FSB clockings iff i really need too.
BTW nice approach CyberWarrior

I agree with that and I will add that it will cost money too replace whatever broke!! So my advice is to OC in small incriments @ a time. I have tried OCing and havent seen an performance increases from 1.2 to 1.4 so I am not OCing anymore. I want to drop in an 1800+ and run that for a good while. icon_biggrin.gif icon_cool.gif icon_cool.gif

It is broke because it's not going as fast as it possibly can :P

Then get some xtra dosh and get that Athy XP 2ghtz.
Really if you overdo yah CPU now you will have to buy a new one, so you paying double, eg. Athy XP 1.6 = $220 (just as an example)
If you break it thats another $220 to but a new one
so in the end you pay $440 and with that Dosh you get Top off the range
I.R.Baboon
But I'm smart and haven't broken it icon_rolleyes.gif and I've got the performance of a chip that costs twice as much icon_eek.gif And If I go a little higher I'll have the performance of a chip that isn't even released yet icon_eek.gif

A little bit of watercooling and you can push aAthlon as far as you want just by upping the multiplier, once you unlock it. That way, no need to up FSB and o/c PCI and AGP items. I can run my XP1700 @ 1662Mhz on a 12.5x multiplier. That is using WBK38-II with 1 80mm fan blowing onto it and 2 60mm on rear panel sucking out. The Athy wil go as high as 15x multiplier on my other board but I haven't done it yet due to air cooling. That would be a whopping 1995Mhz out of a chip designed at 1467 base Mhz, all the while not adjusting the FSB...

Makes you think, doesn't it. icon_lol.gif

What's your other mobo icon_question.gif Is it a KT333 coz the KT266A only have a max multi of 12.5 icon_cry.gif

athlon 600@720

duron 600@856
tbird 1333@1456

my proudest acheivment is the first, because i'm running 120fsb STABLE on an asus k7v, it was lightning quick in its time and my agp bus speed was at 4x(320mhz) with my 3d prophet geforce sdr.

the last two on the same kt7-raid. the multiplier wont go any higher than 13x, so i can only push the fsb to 112, though i have posted at 120 icon_eek.gif
pity my leadtek gf2pro hates high agp bus speeds, anything higher than 105 and i have to drop back to 2xagp.

best ive done is my Slot 1 Pentium III 650E running @ 906Mhz using a Thermaltake Golden Orb Slot 1 Cooler... original intel hsf only got me up to 806Mhz.... icon_eek.gif

not going to touch my XP1800+ yet.... handles everything well enough.
I.R.Baboon
got my 1700+ to 1694 on default voltage.... but have to do another unlock so I can get a 12.5 multi instead of an 11.5 icon_cry.gif
