1.8V Opened case with a Chrome Orb and past. Running at 112 fsb(70% increase in clock speed), but the system is seriously getting hammered by the 8meg Vanta card :Þ Not bad for a $57 chip. Way to go Intel!!

Hehe, nice overclock there. But I've got one a little better. I have a Duron 600@1050 a 75% increase, and the fact that the Duron clobbers the Celeron :). It'll take a Celeron 1200-1300 to beat my guy. :)

Yeah, I envy you. I sure would like a Duron or Thunderbird, but didn't want to shell out the $$$ for the Socket-A boards. Still, a 952 Celeron II on the 112 Bus is around the neighborhood of a ......
Duron 900?

I'd say more like a Duron 800-850..... Man, PLEASE get a new video card... for MY sake :). Budget wise, I think that the Radeon DDR LE would be a great buy. It gave me a HUGE performance increase from my Voodoo 3 2K.... meaning you'd see a performance increase like you would never see before.

I had a Celeron 566 @ 952 for a while. I bought it the day they hit the market, paid $160 for it. Went from a Celeron 575 to a Celeron 952. :)

Eventually sold it to buy a P3 @ 933+.

Sweet little chip for the price, if you're lucky enough to hit 952.

I've been dying to get a new video card :)
I was thinking something alone the line of a SIS6326.
SiS6326AGP integrates AGP/PCI VGA controller, 3D/2D graphics accelerator and video accelerator to achieve unprecedented realistic 3D, brilliant 2D performance and cutting-edge video-in solutions.
64 bit AGP/PCI VGA
2D/3D/Video
64 bit 8M SDRAM/SGRAM
1x/2x AGP
DirectX6.0 support

That 933 sure looks tempting, too bad my 6BXC can't divide the PCI speed by 4. But that 933 would sure look good on the blazing S3 Trio64 V+ 2MB 32-Bit PCI Video Card from ComputerGeeks
