I've been reading through this thread, and thought I would add what I
have. Might be about .02.
Back in the day I had a Asus P3V4X, and a PIII 450. There was an
issue with some of those boards and thier clock generators
overheating. I could run it stable at 133, but any higher and it
would get flaky, to use a technical term.
I added a small heatsink onto the clock generator, and after that it
ran (and is still running) perfectly stable at 150 fsb. I had to cut
it down to a smaller size, and some hs compound in the middle with 2
dabs of epoxy in 2 corners, and after about 4 years its still going
strong.
So knock yourself out, it sure won't hurt anything!
Thanks for the input BB. I'll do the 'finger check'. :-)
Cheers,
