Tualatin overclocking

Based on what I've seen from the Celeron Tualatins (same core) they can overclock to about 1.5-1.6GHz's. With luck and/or extreme cooling I've seen 1.7-1.8GHz's. You also need to feed them more voltage with either the mobo or the VID pin trick.
 


<< For clarification, its a P3 Tualatin@1.26Ghz



<< the VID pin trick >>


What is that?

By looking at the Intel voltage chart and identifying your chip's default voltage you can then use a strand of copper wire to short a couple of the CPU pins and increase dramatically your default voltage. Real useful in overclocking when the mobo actually sets a range of voltages and do not reaches the max 1.85 volts.
 
InverseOfNeo, for you, you don't need to vid pin for your P3S chip. Your chip is rated@ default 133mhz fsb. It'll let you overclock the fsb to 166fsb+ with maybe a little of Vcore increase. Many P3S oc well with stock vcore. The question is... do you have a good overclocking RAM? Having a dud memory would hold you back from OC'ing your chip. We are talking some high FSB's here. Btw, I like your chip.. yummy... 😀

You might wanna pluralize that cuz its a dual P3S system.😀

The ram I got is micron pc2100 ram. I am gonna be using the IWill DVD266u-RN motherboard.
