oc celeron 1.0A tulatin !!!!

[Visa2]

how high could I overclock my celeron. 1.33ghz is the best or more then that speed is Preferable and should I get corsair pc-150 cl2 rams???

I'm able to overclock mine up to 1,520MHz, but I prefer to keep it at 1,400MHz for everyday use. Do not worry about your memory, you can always adjust the timings to get the max performance and max stability. You will probably need to make a volt wire mod to get the VCore up to 1.7-1.8v if you cannot do it with your current mobo.

Do you have any links on how to do the wire mod for Tualatin? My moboard has a bunch of AGP/PCI dividers, but no Vcore adjustments. And it waaay undervolts the CPU by default.

I did download the Tualatin Celeron datasheet, but failed to figure out which pins to short or to isolate. Maybe I'm just dumb, but the datasheet seems too complicated for me.

If you check to forums at www.overclockers.com, and do a search on wire trick or VID pin mods or some such, you should turn up some info on it. I got lucky and didn't have to do the wire trick. I think many of the later production models didn't need it. Good luck.

^^ Mine is very similar to Richardito's.

Me:

Celeron 1.0A goes to about 1450 Mhz or so, then gets very unstable (99% sure it's from the high PCI speed). I run mine at 1400 MHz all the time (no crashes or instability), CAS3 memory speed on a TUSL2-C.

i run my 1.0a at 1.6ghz w/ the vid pin trick for 1.675v using 2 x 256mb crucial pc133 cas3 + sk6

i also use a pll divider of 20, which makes my agp/pci = 62/31 😀

I can get mine to 150 fsb, but my usb cuts out above 135, so I just run it at 1350.

AkumaX, which pins did you short/isolate to get to that Vcore of 1.65V? I can't seem to find this info anywhere. Maybe you also know how to get the Vcore to a more moderate setting of about 1.525V?

Simply go Here and you will get all the information you need.

Yeah I don't have that fancy stuff on my asus (sigh). ASUS decided to just use the CUSL2 design and make it tualatin compatible. Ah well this is on the family computer anyways, I woudn't overclock their machine that much anyways 😉 .

What kind of temps are normal for you guy's with these processors? I just built a system for someone using this exact processor and it hits 1333mhz with no problems but the idle temp hovers around 45c. But the crazy thing is, when I turn the computer off and feel the HFS unit, I feel almost no warmth whatsoever, and the hsf is on just fine as well. Any input on wether it's cool to leave this CPU at 1333mhz would be great.

i had to use a vcore mod because my mobo, a gigabyte 6oxt, doesnt have vcore adjust. there's a pll divider that'll let me go to 200mhz fsb and still be @ 66/33, but i'd need a sweet cpu for that.... it is impossible to get something like 1.525v because certain pins are always 'on' so that you dont really have a wide variety to vid pin mod (i think like the next one up would be 1.825v or something)

anyways, i used this dude's site, http://home.pacific.net.au/~frogge/pepper/tua/tuareport1.html as a guide (just using that picture that shows where the wires go) (i also have a bh6 running a tualatin) and http://home.pacific.net.au/~frogge/pepper/tua/voltreport1.html. this one has the table that shows which vid pins need to be on/off to reach a certain vcore + if you want to have a switch. have fun!
