THE OVERCLOCKER'S DEN
Pushing hardware to the LIMIT since 1999
WARNING: Overclocking can damage your hardware! Proceed at your own risk!
Latest Benchmarks:
CPU Stock Overclocked Cooling
Celeron 300A 300MHz 450MHz! Alpha PFH6035
Athlon 500 500MHz 650MHz GlobalWin FOP32
P3 600E 600MHz 900MHz!! Peltier + waterblock

Guide: Unlocking your Athlon with the pencil trick
You heard right - a #2 pencil can unlock the multiplier on AMD Athlons!
1. Find the L1 bridges on the CPU
2. Connect them carefully with pencil graphite
3. Set your desired multiplier in BIOS
4. Pray to the silicon gods

My Rig:
- AMD Athlon 700 @ 950MHz (pencil trick + voltage mod)
- ASUS K7M motherboard
- 256MB PC133 SDRAM (CAS2)
- Voodoo3 3000 16MB (overclocked to 183MHz core)
- 30GB IBM Deskstar 75GXP (RIP click of death)
