Thanks for the info. I knew it would work on a KT7A, but I also know that I won't be able to get the 'free' 133/266 right off the bat. 118 x 12.5 is correct.

dingdongdingdong,

I wouldn't want to clock my T-bird 1 GHz at 1.418 MHz. :)

That's ONE HUGE underclocking. hehe

Woo! :) Hey, is there thermal compound between the heatsink/fan and the north-bridge chip? If not, adding some would help keep it cooled off, unless they attach the heatsink/fan with thermal tape instead of spring pins, in which case you're stuck (no pun intended).

Regarding the RC5 team: Anand founded Team AnandTech, and we do the RC5-64 Challenge, the Optimal-Golumb-Ruler project (a mathematical/science project), the SETI@home project and the GammaFlux project, those are the main four anyway.

I run the RC5 program mostly, it is a Cow icon in my system tray by the clock. It uses idle CPU time to search for the key to a message that has been encrypted by RSA Security Labs as a challenge to the public. Yes, there's a prize for the person who finds the key. ;) No, it doesn't hurt your performance, not even when running benchmarks. Thunderbirds are dynamite at all four of those projects.

Support Anand's team! :) The &quot;Team AnandTech&quot; link in my sig takes you to the Team's web site and FAQ's. Also read the Team AnandTech article on anandtech.com for a more in-depth explaination of the projects. Come on over to the AnandTech Distributed Computing Forum if you want some questions answered. :)
