Sharky Extreme heeft een blik geworpen op de nieuwe Celeron 500MHz. Na een beetje tweaken zijn ze erin geslaagd er 608MHz uit te krijgen, lees het hier.
Using Intel's standard retail cooling heatsink we were able to solidify our eval Celeron 500 CPU at a maximum MHz of 608MHz. This was achieved with the Soyo jumperless CPU setup operating at 7.5 x 81MHz.Just for grins we tried to hit 7.5 x 83MHz (623MHz) on an Abit BM6 mainboard (which being a dedicated Socket370 mainboard doesn't require an electronically noisy Slotket converter card) to see if electrical noise interference was impeding our overclocking progress.
However, just as on the Soyo/Abit converter card combo, the native Socket370 Abit BM6 board refused to stabilize at a speed of 7.5 x 83MHz or 623MHz.
