So what would you all consider to be a good overclock on a duron 600?
With only aircooling.

My Duron 600 will post at 950, but will not boot to Windows. It will go to 850@1.85v fine (no crashes or blue screens), but it gets too hot. I'm getting a new heatsink to help resolve my heat problem. 800 MHz seems to be the sweet spot for my 600 at the moment. I have 2 case fans and a stock (crapola) heatsink w/fan.

Yes, very good.

My 600 does 954 MHz, but it took heroic effort on my part (Alpha 6053, modification of motherboard to allow 2.0 volts)

Mine does 960's with Alpha, previously 930's with fan included with Duron. Really wanted to get to 1GHz, but refuses to let me get that high. Voltage is upped to 1.85v. Temperature is usually around the 45-50 range, 48-54 range during hot days. I have one intake, one outtake 80 mm fan for case, Antec KS282 along with Abit KT7-RAID.
