Hi,

I'm fed up of my C3 samuel running at 533Mhz, I remember there was a utility so I could up the multo and get 700mhz....

Anyone know what it's called?

wcpuid im sure could control the multi's on those badboys.

nice, I just got CPU-z, I'll try wcpuid

EDIT: Thanks! Got it working... Had to go for an older version, (3.0c), I bumped the multi up to 5, and I'm now running at a literally beastley 666Mhz!

Watch out quad cores, there is a new beast in town.

ouch, make sure you get a big meaty heatsink and a delta to cool that little heat factory

I might try some liquid nitrogen on it and see if I can break the 1GHz barrier...

It's been running totally passive as it's normally my fileserver... It wasn't until my main rig went **** up yesterday that I had to resort to thjis thing that can just about play mpeg files... It's like getting used to an F1 car then suddenly be relegated to a skateboard.

haha yeah. ive still got my c3 933 around somewhere. i had that running at a whopping 1.07ghz once. if i remember correctly, it was only my ram and the complete lack of voltage options holding me back :cool:

Lol, I think I had an uptime of 2 weeks, until I changed to multiplier to 6x.

The very instant I clicked "OK", the whole thing crashed and I had to reboot... :eek:

666Mhz will have to do for now, I can't spend too much time tweaking this thing, as I need to fix my main rig...
