I have found an old IBM T60 notebook in the trash. I know it is very old but i like it.

I replaced the stock T5600 cpu to an older Core Duo T2450, and the two smaller 512mb dimms to 2Gb+1Gb, and replaced the old 80gb hdd to 500gb HDD. (later it gets a 60gb ssd)
With windows7 32bit it is usabe, but i want to overclock it. I have a lot of core2 duo socket M and P cpu-s but i want to build the fastest X86 32bit laptop that is why i use the highest multipiler core1 duo, i want to overclock to 2,5ghz.

The cpu us only 533fsb, the board supports 667 fsb so it is possible to overclock it.
I have made bsel pinmods and pll chip soldering on older dell laptops. (Dell D500 855 chipset at 533fsb worked fine with pentium m770)
Is there a pinout for this core1duo? Or any PLL mod for this T60?
And next will be the GPU, but first is the Cpu.

You may have some success with an app called SETFSB

AFAIK there were similar apps from around that time where you simply just adjusted sliders but setFSB is the only one i can remember off the top of my head.

It may work. it may not. Nobody knows. A guy did managed to OC a Dual Xeon Dell Precision T7500 server but thats obviously not a laptop

Otherwise read through some of the pages in the TPU 'Laptop Overclocking Adventures' Thread -- Its very old and outdated but you might fight something that will work that most people would have forgotten about.

I know the setfsb tool but i dont find the working pll chip.
I also overclocked a few servers. Like Tyan i5100, Hp and lenovo servers.

Merom is 64bit cpu, i want the best performance 32bit cpu and that is Yonah. It is for fun only.
