My worst purchase...
Buying a coppermine when I could have bought an unlocked T-Bird a week later for a cheaper price. *sigh*
Right now i'm runnin a duron 1.3 @ 1.404 stabily around 110F underfull load 108fsb/1.525v. I really wanted to hit around 1.5 but my pci would go higher than 38mhz around 111fsb then my sound/lan cards would crash i was thinking about going 133fsb through a jumper that'd make it run 1.7Ghz then try overriding the multiplier through jumper to 11.5/11 and hit 1.5Ghz but would it work?! and would i need more voltage
As of about 15 minutes ago, this was the thread ForumsAdmin was looking at.
The Kinky Mod has returned!
Hey i was looking around intels site and saw an Xeon 2.8Ghz and i am making a new rig w/ a price cap around 4k. The through crossed my mind of maybe overclocking that thing! 28 multiplier @ 100fsb could be a sweet overclock. i know it's meant to be a server chip so anyone know of any boards out there with adjustable fsb for Xeon? just wondering
Good luck finding a server board capable of overclocking. No server board I know has any type of SoftFSB (FSB / voltage mod).
If you want to overclock, stick to consumer level stuff. There is basically no market for Xeon overclocking.
Yeah just me lol
Xeons can be overclocked in the Iwill DP400 with some soldering. Read all about it in this thread.

I can't answer most of your questions but I successfully softmodded mine and got 1,000 more points in Aquamark3 (50014 total). I'm not going to try overclocking more until I need the extra performance because I have a Dell computer with a 250 watt psu and don't want to push my luck if I don't need to.
For a no thrills cloning software Macrium Reflect works well. http://www.macrium.com/reflectfree.aspx
As far as SSDs go I can name three that are pretty good. Adata, Intel and Samsung.
this was not mine, but its what comes up. first posts would have been in hot deals, before the forum changed.
