    then use it with Windows 98 or Linux...i guarantee you'll see much better performance with Linux.

    that really depends on the version of linux you get...search around, there are a few that are easy on us XP'ers...

    don't as not worth it. the fact it only shows 900 & 1200mhz in the bios & 1200mhz is 30% above 900mhz & they say do about 10% oc. it is not worth it. my p4 is not oc & won't be either as it is a tool not a toy
