Poll ur favorite THAT YOU ACTUALLY HAVE



I'd have to say my favorite would be my Athlon XP 2400-Mobile. Its cheap (only $77) yet it whups any pentium 4 c or e you can buy, and its hella fun to tweak and mess with. What's your's?

95 degree (F) weather outside during the summer, lucky to reach 70 degrees (F) in the house.. over clocking would mean death to an already incredibly hot computer.

AMD AthlonXP 2200+

How hard do you think it'd be to hit 2GHz?

(as i don't over clock -- i did back in Pentium days)

Appears its not too safe :P

Viola A.I. said:
Think he means 3.06 not 3.6

thats still bs. do u have any idea what kind of cooling it would take? ever heard of a mach II or vaopchill lightspeed? they cool a cpu to under -45c. they also cost about $800+. the chances of u getting to 3.0+ with one of those is extremely rareif not possible. that leaves dual cascade custom pahse change units. that is expensive, that is hard to build, that also requires a license in refridgeration. now, i could be wrong, but i heavily doubt seperoth has all tyhose requirements. so, basically 3.6ghz is total bs if he meant that, and 3.06ghz is extremely unlikely. but who knows, maybe sep will show some pics and make me look like a fool.
