1. I have my 1.2 ghz T bird running at 1.34 at 100 degrees F. .Is that a decent temp ?
I have a great fan hook up !

2. Is the external clock the FSB ?
I ask because mine is at 109 mhz ! if it is the fsb shouldnt it be at what the cpu stats ?

ANY help will be great !
 
That is a great temperature considering your overclock. I am not sure about your second question. It is hard to tell what your FSB is right now because all we know is that you overclocked a 1.2 GHz to 1.34 GHz. What is your multiplier set at? You can divide your clock speed by the multiplier to get your FSB. Normally that is the external clock, but you might have something else going on.
 
The CPU temp seems fine, it of course depends on the case temp.

CPU speed = FSB speed * Multiplier. Since you overclocked your CPU by increasing the FSB speed, it is of course not 100 Mhz but is 109 Mhz. You overclocked it and don't know how you overclocked it?! 😉
 
I know how I oced it in the bios there are settings that go higher and lower I have it set in the middle ,I just am not sure on all the terminology and such ,
And my case temp is 75 degrees f
 
Nelson, it's not hard at all to tell the FSB speed.

Since it's a 1.2 Ghz chip, we will assume it is to run at 200 Mhz DDR or 100 Mhz regular, which gives us 1200/100 = 12 multiplier. Now, 1340 Mhz / 12 = 111.7 Mhz FSB.

If it's a 266 Mhz DDR, it's 133 Mhz regular, so 1200/133 = 9 multiplier. Overclocked to 1340, we have 1340 / 9 = 148 Mhz FSB.
 
Soric, I suggest you do some reading before messing with the BIOS, and it doesn't sound like you know what you're doing - no offense.

Read your motherboard manual, and then at least 2 overclocking guides on the Web, just do a search on Google.com. You should measure the CPU temp. when running non-overclocked, then compare it to the overclocked temp, and see if it went up too much.

Also, it's customary to provide the temp. in both F and C, not everyone here understands the F..
