Here it is:

Right now there is Duron 750Mhz in it. 10 seconds fun with pencil and multi is unlocked
I have also Duron 1,1Ghz (pretty damaged core, but still running), Athlon 2500+ barton (bad OCer, only 2,15 or 2,2 Ghz max) and dead Athlon 1800+ TB. 2700+ and 1700+ is waiting for me

 

[3991vhtes]

I see you have a Abit NF7, the AN7's big brother!!!

 

[pagalms]

Yep NF7. I've done some mods to it. Latest one - added power/reset buttons on the board
I'll post my scores bit later.

 

[JrRacinFan]

Heya pagalms! See post #2, I added a link to your post.

 

[pagalms]

I don't even know - i have to laugh or cry about this or just hit myself with banana
THIS THING ISN'T OCING AT ALL

Some benching with mr i-am-not-benchable-over-2ghz:

I didn't run superpi cuz no fun to run it without tweaks and i can't think today (i'm sick right now and have terrible headache)

BTW vdroop mod done today and now board have a nice overvoltage: 1,825 in BIOS -> 1,952 CPU-Z

One of my Durons survived 2,336V vcore today

 

[JrRacinFan]

Well if you cant break 2Ghz, might as well throw it under the mobile mod and pull up your fsb and drop your multi. Maybe even up your multi to 11.5 and see if it posts.

 

[[I.R.A]_FBi]

what do u suggest for a heap file server upgrade ?

Thanks, but mobile mod doesn't work on it. I can reach 2188MHZ, but it's not benchable anymore.

 

[3991vhtes]

IRA, maybe a Tyan dual socket A mobo, and a pair of Athlon MP's.

 

[3991vhtes]

[grunt_408]

I have to wait untill Monday to get my Athlon XP 3000+. I missed the postie on Friday ggrrr.
I hope it is a Barton.

 

[3991vhtes]

I love the barton cores

 

[JrRacinFan]

That totally bites CBerry. The anticipation thickens!

Post 2 updated!!!

 

[3991vhtes]

And remember, vote high....please

 

[JrRacinFan]

You got a 7/10 from me, good cable management.

 

[3991vhtes]

too bad the location of the ATX power connector, that really messed things up

 

[3991vhtes]

My laptop is Socket A

It's a eMachines M5305
I traded my Abit AN7 system for it. I miss the other PC, but I'm lovin the laptop

 

[pagalms]

It means opened multi?

 

[3991vhtes]

yep... When I get another OC socket A board, I'm gonna pull the CPU outta here, and OC it

 

[grunt_408]

The anticipation of my cpu arriving is killing me so I put the system together this morning.
Here are some pics....
