Greetings

I want to O/C this new (red core if it matters) duron 900 cpu. It's going into a ecs sis735 mobo. What is the best way to do this? I have the conductive automotive paint for reconnecting the bridges but I havnt atempted this before and I'm not sure which bridges need to be reconnected.

Thanks in advance WB

Hi!

Here is some link that discuses OC-ing for Duron CPU. Maybe you can find some useful stuff inthere.

To unlock the CPU you must connect the L1 bridges (it has 4 little bridges). But be sure that no 2 nearby bridges touch each other !
You can them connect with: pencil or solder or that conductive paint....

Please look into the forums for more info on this to make sure you will not break anything.
Cheers,

The K7S5A dosen't allow multiplier or core voltage changes because it's not an overclockers board. However, you can connect all of the L7 bridges to make the core voltage 1.85v and since your using the Duron the OCworkbench bios will be of little use since your CPU is 200FSB default. I run a 700Duron@7x133=931mhz just setting the FSB to 133mhz and having the core voltage set to 1.85 and it's very stable. if you have an 800 or higher I don't think that's an option, so if your CPU's mulitiplier is higher than 7 I suggest CPUcool as it allows you to overclock from the fsb and provides hardware monitoring as well.
