Go up one level in this thread


Here's my experience so far:

I have two Athlon MP's set to run at 9x133mhz (1200mhz). I run them on a Tyan
Tiger MPX motherboard. That board can be overclocked one of two ways. Modify the
processors themselves (which can be bought from Aaron Gordon). Or you can use a
program called CPUFSB to modify the clock generator to produce a higher FSB. My
old Tiger MP couldn't be modified the second way but this one can be modified
all the way up to 150 mhz which is what mine is set at now. So now my processors
are running at 9x150mhz (1350mhz). I run Goober on FICS and it's been completely
stable for 2 or 3 weeks now. I've run Crafty, Deep Sjeng, and Shredder and none
have caused any instabilities for me. The SMP programs seem to like the higher
FSB quite a bit, I must add.
