Since my BIOS has a max 300 FSB, and wont boot with anything over 278 MHz FSB, i tried over clocking in windows using A64 info.exe
Ive managed to get it to 3 GHz before now, even though my BIOS says that the max it will go is 2.7 GHz.
I set the cpu to 2.75 GHz, with 1.375 V, HT x 3 and the ram at DDR 333 speeds.
I ran orthos and it seemed stable as anything, running at 60 C full load, which is a bit worrying.
I want to know how safe this is, and how comes i can overclock this far, but i cant in my BIOS, would i be better off getting a different mothebroard that is known as a good overclocker.
Your thoughts?
