My new machine has finally arrived, it is about 60% finished : i still need to locate a lint free cloth to apply thermal paste, make fresh boot disks , and locate a copy of WinXP . In this topic i will post my O/C finding of the AthlonXP mobile 2400 , by the luck of the draw the number on it says 'IQYHA' , all chips with this stepping have been reported to o/c VERY well even for a mobile .
System stats :
512 GIEL DDR 400 with blue heatspreader
athlon XP 2400 mobile
Radeon 8500 128mb
Asus A7N-8X-E Deluxe
Dual Lan : Gigabit and 100mb/s
Soundstorm Audio
Onboard WiFi
TR2-M2 heatsink copper/aluminum heatsink
2x 80mm case fan
Soyo black handle case .
for all those thinking of getting a mobile chip monitor this topic : the XP average XP mobile can reach 2.4ghz on a cheap , all aluminum heatsink . At that speed it is as fast [and occasionally faster] than a A643200 . Considereing that they range in price from 75 to 95 USD [ half the price of the A64] this is a GREAT buy .
Don't expect any replies from me until late sunday evening /monday... after i phreak some games
