I have it running on a Leufkins 52watt pelt/metal coldplate with a alpha pep66/sunon fan cooling them.
The CPU hangs aorund 25c, and the heatsink puts off quite a bit of heat

I'm at 1.9v right now, @ 103fsb because 112 won't get me into windows
should I try any higher, or let the processor break in for a week and see what happens then?

Wowz, my old 566 ran at 952 with only 1.75 V. I'm not sure if you need to feed it that much.

I guess I'll jet let it run like this for a week or so and see what happens from there
I dont want this processor to go up in smoke; it's not even my machine :Q

OMG! You are one crazy MOFO! I stopped at 1.75 when I couldnt get mine to o/c and said screw it cause it wasnt worth the risk to burn out my chip :Q

I was considering a peltier too, but then I realized that the Celeron runs fairly cool. Make sure you're not overdoing it.

Actually it runs at roughly 30watts or so.....
so the pelt is getting loaded nicely
the heatsink runs hot, and the air from the sunon fan is rather hot
