Ok, ive heard now that the cut pins on the durons is a hoax. Does this mean all duron 600, 650's and 700's will oc to 900 - 950? So, that would mean it doesnt make a difference what week, or retail/oem

thanks

i have a 600, but it only goes up to 800. im thinking it is my fan/heatsink. i am using a heatsink that im not even supposed to be using. im going to try and sell this heatsink/fan combo and buy a new one that is specifically made for the duron.

What heatsink are you using? I was planning on using my alpha pal6035 that I have on my ppga celery 366

The PAL6035 works great. Just be careful when mounting it. It gets on pretty tight.

As for what to expect, there are a lot of people who have been only able to get 800-850MHz out of their 600s. Of course there are also a lot of people who have gotten 900+.
