Last check for Duron OC

You know how they say, better safe than sorry 🙂

The board is ASUS A7V, CPU is Duron 700 (L7 bridges show that its running on 1.6v instead of 1.5 by default, quite frankly I don't like that), cooling is Alpha PAL6035+Arctic Silver. I hope to hit GHz with this setup.

To sum up my knowledge:
  1. To change multipliers, you have to connect L1 bridges with a pencil (or conductive pen).
  2. To rise voltage, you have to connect L7 bridges, again with a pencil or conductive pen.

...and then OCing or no OCing can be done by changing DIP swithces on the motherboard. FSB OC'ing can be done without altering the CPU.

Did I get it right?
 
I have 6 Duron 700s on order, as well as 6 A7Vs.

I don't think you need to do anything with L7. Use bios to increase voltage. Use a silver conductive pen or automotive rear window defogger repair kit for the L1 bridges. The pencil approach is not always long lasting.

I believe you can go up to 1.85V for the core using the A7V bios. There is a way to increase the voltage further, but I don't know if a voltage higher than 1.85 is safe for your Duron.
