P-III 1Ghz overclocking capabilities?

[chasm22]

I am currently straddling the fence over what to put in a system I am going to build. At first, I was going AMD all the way, but now with the dramatic price drop of the Intel chips I am thinking of going with the P-III 1ghz.

Does anyone have any experience overclocking this chip? I am thinking about the flip chip.
With a CUSL2 motherboard. What could somebody realistically expect to be able to O/c this chip and still maintain reliability?

I don't want a flame war about AMD versus Intel, just some solid answers.

Thanks,
Grumpy

I doubt it will go higher than 1.05 GHz.

Damn TimeLord! Don't hold back, tell us how you really feel about PIII's?

tis true tho. Tbirds deliver amazing bang for the buck. i can't help but notice ALOT of people around here migrating to AMD. i am happy w/ my 650E/BX rig at 900-925, but would love to move to a KT133A/Tbird setup. its a good time for the power hungry.

Well I'm getting ready to upgrade my system thusly:
P-III 933EB, Hercules 3D Prophet II GTS Pro 64MB, 512MB Mosel Vitelic CAS 2 P133 RAM on 4 128 MB sticks, all on an Asus P3V4X. Got a great deal on all of the above and unless your anal, there's not much diff between 933 and 1Gig. The slot 1 deal is a long story but I'm still happy as a clam with Intel CPU's even though I'm not knocking the everyday "bang for a buck" of AMD's. It's all good when Q3 sings, eh?

get a p3 700e if you want to overclock high, you can get those past 1100mhz (if your lucky)
