I flashed to the new bios yesterday, and was able to clock my Duron 700 to 947 (Used to be 900). I changed no other settings at all. I am running 1.725V core, 3.4V I/O, @107F. I am pretty sure I can go higher, but my framerates are faster than my eyes anyway. I used to be at 100x9.0, now I am at 105x9.0 (I know that doesn't add up to 947, but Sandra says it is 947). I tried this before, no stability. Now it's rock solid.

I think I will try 1.775 @ 1050 tonight.

B.T.W.
What is a high but still safe temp for a duron? I have had it up to 122F with no aparent problems, and I have heard of people at like 145F, but what would be considered safe? Also, am I endangering anything by running the I/O at 3.4? I would imagine it just makes my memory run a bit hotter/stabler (I have crappy ass mem, it's running at freakin' PC-100 C3, 2 16's and a 64) <--- Man that disgusts me :). Oh well, at least I only paid $5 for all three dimms.

Hey Quaggoth, what mobo are you using. It's good to here the new bios is working for you but the mobo name would help.

KT7-RAID. Won't go faster than about 947 though:( Pretty sure it's my memory though. Getting a Corsair 256 C2 pretty soon (Or new Bilstien's for my truck)(Actually, I shoudl probably get new rear tires first :)
