Oops, I did it again...
... I bought a new CPU, and couldn't resist overclocking it Shocked

I found out that my humble XP2100+ was just mismarked - it's really a 2800+ Wink

errrg.. that pisses me off. there is absolutely no way to overclock my dual 1900's that I'm aware of. This is on a TigerMP board with (I think) a custom Pheonix server bios.

Tom's hardware guide is usually good for this sort of stuff:

http://www6.tomshardware.com/cpu/19970102/index.html

Check that out for a general review and do a search for your paticular processor and chipset to see if it's capable of being overclocked and how to go about it.

My computer is protected - should it catch on fire, the fire will melt through the plastic pipes, thus releasing water to put out the fire Shocked

In such an event may I fill your position in the GT office after you turn into a barbecued steak?
