CEL 600 W/ MS-6905 SLOCKET

[GADGET383]

Trying to overclock a cel 600 on a abit Bx6 2.0 w/ a ms-6905 slot1 card. Need to know what jumper settings I should on the card and in the Bios. Trying to get as close as possible to 1gig.

Here's how I do it:

1. Set the jumpers on the slocket as follows:
FSB: auto
CPU Voltage: Auto (remember NC means no connection - remove the pin)
J1: short
J4: Short Pins 1 and 2
J3: short pins 1 and 2

In the bios, change the following:

1. CPU core voltage to 1.85
2. FSB: 100Mhz
3. Speed Error Hold: disable

Boot up and see if she makes it into Windows. Hopefully you have a burn-in proram like Prime95 to run to test. If not download one. Burn in the CPU for 15 minutes at this speed and if successful, reboot and increase FSB by a few Mhz and repeat test. Continue in this fashion until you get an error in the test. When you find an error, you have found the step above the top speed you can run the CPU at this voltage.

During all this, monitor your CPU voltage - you should be able to read it in the bios of the board. If you ever see it go above 40C at idle, it is getting to hot. Consider geting better cooling or backing off of the core voltage.
