Overclock Celeron 1.1GHZ 128K

[Mike5c]

Hello everyone,

I have a ABIT BE6-II motherboard and I will have a Celeron 1.1GHZ and 128K. Does anyone have this motherboard and did they overclock their CPU? If you overclocked what is the highest did you have for the Celeron 1.1GHZ 128K processor.

i heard some celeries can go pretty high like 1.6ghz or so

Hi hytek369,

Thanks for the info. If anyone has more info please post here. By the way what is the highest FSB for the ABIT mobo BE6-II can go up to. I am waiting for my Celeron 1.1GHZ to arrive so I can test it out. The celeron 1.1GHZ FSB is 100MHZ.

Thanks

Good News I just got my Celeron 1.1GHZ 128K today. I will over clock this baby and see how far it will go with my ABIT BE6-II mobo. I will post my result after I test it.

It is highly unlikely you will see 1.6ghz out of that chip, because it is based on the .18 micron coppermine cpu that maxed out at 1.1ghz. Intel might have improved their yelds however, so you might get up to 1.2 or 1.3 if you are lucky, but if you dont even get that far, dont be too disappointed.

good luck

Hi Butch84,

Thank you for telling me. I won't get too disappointed because I am ready for what ever speed I can overclock it too. Again thank you very mcuh. I will post my results soon. My old CPU was a 500MHZ and its soooo slow. I can only overclock that baby up to 563MHZ because when I overclocked that thing to 600 or 653MHZ its not stable and it freezes.

With that series of celerons, the 900 was the prize, cdo stepping only and both mine did 1200/133 with a little bit more voltage.

Got a couple tualitans still, another great celeron & both mine on the 133mz fsb/bus, 1333 & 1466mz!

The ones you heard of doing 1600 would've been the tualitans, .13u & 1.45v and probably had serious cooling on them.

Hi blackhawk,

Thank you for the information.

BAD NEWS. My CPU did not work when it arrive DOA. So now I have to "EXCHANGE" the CPU and then I will post my results with the NEW CPU. I hope my EXHANGE CPU will work.

hehe, i member when i had my celeron II 566 @ 1.0Ghz, peltier rules.

Hi Batmanag,

Good

Hi All,

Great News I recieved my CPU on 2-10-04 and works. My FSB is 100 but I overclocked it too 109FSB and the speed it now 1.2280. Sometimes there are blue screen when only shut down but when I run every applicaition there are no blue screen. My voltage is set to 1.9 v. Original is 1.75v. This is great 1.1 overclocked it to 1.2. My Celeron 500MHZ is only overclockable to 563 MHZ. Well I am happy with my NEW celeron 1.1 now is 1.2 GHZ(hehe).

With that mobo you have to run the PCI bus at the wrong speed to get to 109 MHz FSB right? If so, I'd just run the CPU at 100 MHz FSB. A 9% overclock is basically meaningless, but you'd be running the PCI bus at 36.3, which isn't a good idea.

Personally, I would have just gotten a Tualatin adapter and a Celeron 1.1 with 256 KB. Those overclock consistently to 1.46 GHz on a 133 MHz bus, which is perfect for those mobos that have a 1/4 PCI bus divider.

HI Eug,

Thanks for your input. But my CPU is not capable of running FSB 133. I have tryied to set the FSB to 133 but after I set that in the BIOS it locks up after I reboot it. So this is how far I can go. How do I overclock my AGP to 89MHZ?

Yeah, I changed my post as you were posting yours. I forgot you had the old Celeron. It's the Celly Tualatins that can overclock to 1.46 GHz. Yours won't for sure. I just don't think your 9% overclock is worth it if you your PCI bus is not running at 33 MHz. A 9% speed boost is almost unnoticeable.

What I did is just buy a Tualatin converter for my BX board and a Celeron 1.4 Tualatin. I just run at 1.4. No overclocking.

 

[Mike5c]

Hi Egu,

I did buy a Slot-T converter. The Celeron is a Copermine Celeron. Oh now I know that the Tutalin Celeron 1.1 can over clock to 1.4GHZ but a stright Celeron Tutalin 1.4GHZ is not overclockable and it says at 1.4GHZ. Yeah it not worth it over clocking my PCI bus.

Does anyone know how hot (or cold) new Celerons generally run? I am planning on building a new machine for a friend where heat is a terrible issue. I was told the Celeron is the best bet (in terms of heat put out by the chip). Is this correct? Would I be better with a P4 (or Athlon or whichever)? If anyone knows of some good information or sources for processor heat displacement that would be great. I would really like to use minimal cooling if possible and my friend and I are not interested in top-notch speed.

Thanks in advance,

AMD Baron 2500+ w/ Thermaltake Silent Boost. I'm running it right now at 37C. Also read Artic Silver's instructions on how to apply thermal grease. If you follow the guide exactly you'll get my temps. Generally Durons and Celerons run hotter for some odd reason, so stay away. If you can, mobile CPU's in desktops run cool on stock heatsinks.

I've been running my celery 1.1 at 1.26G (115 FSB) on the ABIT VH6. Anything over that and it locks up. But, it's been running for a couple of years like that and temps have never been over 40 at load.

But, I agree, overclocking for 160 more MHz is pretty pointless.

 

[Mike5c]

OK that is good news.

 

[TGHI]

Why did you just buy a celeron 1.1...you could have got a duron 800 and an an older board for the same price and it would be 33% faster right off the bat. Guh.

Hi TGHI.

You know what I had a tyan mobo before and it was a Duron 950MHZ but the CPU got burn out.

Now why do you say that? All PCI add in cards I have had ran peachy upto 38MHz. A few good ones upto 42MHz. Two @ 44MHz... I never had a CPU that I can push high enough to get past 44MHz on the PCI bus though...
Ahh the good ol days ov BX overclocking brings back memories :moon:...

33MHz PCI became popular when nVidia locked the AGP/PCI @ their stock speeds, you know how much that lowered my 3dmark score having my AGP @ 66 rather than 108?. Quite a bit to put it mellowly. Sure It allowed for some higher OC'ing by eliminating the speed problem. But come now, surely PCI and AGP cards are better now then 4 years ago...
But now I have not seen anybody run a PCI/AGP OC in a long time :disgust:

Have fun OC'ing Mike, I loved my BE6-II

 

[ChunkyBarf]

NokiaDude:

Thank you for your post. That helps a ton. I had not thought of the Pentium-M idea. I will look into that as a consideration. Once my pal and I get cranking, I will try to keep you updated if you care at all.

Thank you again,
ChunkyBarf

 

[Mike5c]

I am saying that becasue I am comparing my Celeron at 500MHZ overcolockable to this Celeron 1.1 GHZ.

AGP/PCI must be locked 66/33 for SATA to work on most Intel motherboards.
even so, 8x AGP took the need out of AGP overclocking.
