I would also like to know this, i've HEARD 2.2v works really well, rock solid thanks

I dunno if you all ever played it but THE MOTHER OF ALL GAMES: SCORCHED EARTH !!!

just use cl_showfps 1 no graph, just the counter

OK, i have pc100 ram, i used to run this ram in my other P2 system on 100mhz fsb. And the heat thing, i lapped down my processor and heatsink (Thermaltake Golden Orb) pretty well and i'm using some thermal grease in between (good thin layer) the heatsink doesnt even get hot. Other peripherals i...

BUMP **

I have a Celeron 400, when i set it up to 83mhz fsb, it will boot up windows and everything, but when i try to open any programs it'll hang. I also tried this with my 366 it runs a little better than the 400 but will hang after a while. Anyone know of any bios settings that might help? i have...

I want to use another psu to run all my fans. Now does the PSU itself generate alot of the heat thats blowing out of the back of the computer or is it hot air from the case itself? The new PSU will be outside of the case and i was just wonderin if i needed the fan inside the PSU cuz i took it...

Ok, i have 2 computers Pentium 2 350 which is at 100mhz fsb i'm gettin a free 400mhz celeron which is at 66mhz fsb the mobo can only goto 83mhz for the celeron. now i heard that a faster fsb is better, so technically which is faster, the 350 @ 100mhz or the 400 @ 66mhz (500@83) thanks

The processor i got is the socket370 w/ the converter to slot1. The problem is when i put it in I get an error 5555 saying something like the bios doesnt recognize the processor, (i have PII and bios probably doesnt support celeron) What kinda mobo should i get?

Forgot to add, that my current mobo multipliers go upto 5.5 and either 100mhz or 66mhz fsb. So its just my bios that wont take the new processor(i've tried flashing but ibm doesnt add processor support in their flashes)

Well, maybe this should be in the motherboard section but maybe I'll post in both. Right now I have a 350PII with a 440bx mobo but my bios wont take my new celeron366(because my machine is an IBM,no room for upgrade). So I wanted to know what a good mobo would be for my celeron366 (@550)...

i'm going to upgrade my P2 350mhz to a Celeron 366@550. I'm wondering if there will be a noticable performance increase. I mostly play games and want to know if this is a good dstep to go with. And i have 224mb of PC100 ram already so i guess the processor is my next step.

Have one more question. Will only the 366 work, because i can get a 400celeron for free. But i'm wondering if the 400 will run at 600 or whatever, because my motherboard jumpers only goto 5.5. I wanted to know if the 400 would only run 550 or will it still run at 600 if i set the fsb to 100mhz.

I have an IBM made computer, supposedly i read the mobo was made by acer. I should get a 366? and oc to 550? i found a adapter by intel from slot1 to socket 370 for like $11. I also found a slot1 cele366, will that work? and be able to oc to 550? i ask this because supposedly P2 clock...

I want to swap out my PII 350 and add a celeron through a socket adapter. And i wanted to know if the celeron can run on 100mhz fsb, my mobo can only go up to 550 and switch only between 66 and 100 mhz fsb, so i want to get 550mhz out of the celeron, will this work?
