    Alright, well he will be back soon anyway.

    Back on topic, have you OCed your Q6600? More importantly, do you play FEAR?

    NO never played FEAR. ;) I guess I could put the Q6600 in my "other" rig and see how it performs. lol. I still don't have a mobo for it yet and I just bought a "cheapy" cpu from Sammy. lol. I wanted to go Dual Core on both my AMD rigs and he obliged by selling me his X2 4200... :)

    I won't have a lot of time until September or so to really mess with the computers. It's been a hot summer and the conditions are less than favorable when trying to get things done. ;P

    Yeah, FEAR Combat's a good laugh for a free game. Pretty scalable too, so you don't need a monster GPU to run it.
    Gm: Will sort out the CPU and its packaging tomorrow, once PayPal work on my bank transfer.

    Hi,
    i just overclocked a Celeron M 360J (Dothan w/ 1 meg cache) from stock 1.4GHz to 2.5GHz!!!

    http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=402526

    its perfectly stable too, and all this on default voltage!

    Btw, it was on a Dell B120 Laptop if anyone is wondering...

    im1992,
    Really! That's pretty good! How did you manage to OC a laptop, with software?

    well firstly I did the pin mod (400 mhz --> 533 mhz), the usual Dothan mod...

    and then I used clockgen

    it took about 15 mins to do both, since there is a cover to access the CPU and clockgen was a breeze: download, unzip, run, set, close! and I was done!

    if you have a Dothan CPU (i.e. Pentium M 90nm or Celeron M 90nm), i can give you a pic of the pin mod or just google it

    How is battery life effected?

    Hey Imran. Took my 'Q6600' to 3.6Ghz stable on 1.47 volts. Probably can use less volts. Will try later.
