OC Mobo? Which is more stable CUSL2 or Abit SE6?

[TomBilliodeaux]

Want to run W2K and oc a P3,700 to 933,140.
Which board will be more stable and perform as claimed (hardware monitoring, power management stuff)?

I have bowth.I like the asus slightly better because of more fsb settings
and slightly better performance.

I had exactly the different experience. I found the SE6 to be more stable. It does have a few less FSB settings though.

vote for cusl2 here, p3-800@1000 1.75v can boot to 1066 but gothang when play the game, looking for some better cooling than alpha pal35t

CUSL2... With the later bios'... 1002 final or 1003.beta3...

cusl2 is rock stable here, but havent test se6. se6 is only good up to 153mhz FSB the clock generator junks out after that (at least thats what i hear on arstechnica and hardocp).

han888, you say you got your 800 to work at 1000 in windows...

i had a cusl2 (till i fried it... long story) anyways i could get mine to post at 100 using a 125fsb but because of the pci clock being so high it killed my windows.

how on earth did you manage to pull that off?

i ended up using an alphapep66 with a 55 watt peltier to boot up to 133fsb. didn't have time to figure out how to get it 100% stable as something went wrong and friend the mobo... looks as if the solder on the back of the agp and pci slots began to melt or something. sort of like a white chalkey looking substance.... like a spider webbing inbetween the solder spots.

i'm current cruising along at 1066/133fsb on a BX133 from abit. no peltier required

just got to get my agp stable and i'll be good to go

i run for 2 month already with this setting, i know the pci bus speed will be 41mhz, but in my pci slot i just have sblive, and sblive can stand at the bus speed, the only thing just my HD and i put some cooler on my hd, and until know the system is still fine
