Athlons FSB200 @ FSB266, how bad is it?

[Julian]

Well, I got an Athlon 1.3 (FSB 200) and I'll like to work @ FSB 266

How bad could it be to my CPU?
Is Stable to overclock the FSB?
When is overclocked, how could I tell the CPU stability?

TextWhould you overclock your FSB too?

TIA. Julian.

Athlon 1.3 (200)

It should be fine. Lots of people here do it.

It will be fine. I run my 1.2b at 1.425 150fs. It is totally stable.

THX...

I'm testing running @ 140Mhz*10 = 1.4 Ghz. It's running fine...

I hope not to burn it up.

Bye. Julian.

1. Maybe a shorter lifespan but enough to last 8-10 years.
2. Depends on CPU, mobo, RAM & whole lots of other things.
3. Run Prime95, Sandra Sisoft, 3DMark & etc. If the system pass the stability test...OK.
