Can someone point me to a good guide for overclocking a Pentium 2

(specifically the P2 450)

does anyone have experience with this chip?

its set at 4.5x100.To overclock,you will need a motherboard that supports 103,110,112,124,133,140,150,ect other bus speeds.Then you may set the bus speed to say 112x4.5,or 124x4.5.The cpu is multiplier locked at 4.5.

i got a p2 333 any one how fast that can go safely with standard fans on my HP I dont have it yet but soon I will get this as a second system and make it into a lean mean Windows 2000 machine ;0 haha. Another question for you could I get a new motherboard and swap out the old one without having to reformat the hard drive but I have to make sure it is the correct chipset??? thanks
