I'm trying to figure out how to overclock an Tbird 1.33 I found a site once but can't find it again...anyone lead me onto a good site.. possibly with some good illistrations (pictures)...

Hey goldenknob. I would like info. on this as well, for a 1.2. Red

generally, you'd have to find out if your board has multiplier, FSB and voltage settings. from there you can start to overclock

to overclock.. Enter the BIOS (usually by pressing Del at startup etc.. you should see down the bottom, "press del for setup" or something similar). As 666 said, you need to increase the FSB/Multiplier/Core Voltage. Generally, increasing the FSB in small increments is best for overclocking. Eventually, you will need to increase the Core Voltage to the CPU to handle the increase in FSB. your clock speed is measured by FSB * Multiplier.. eg. 100 FSB x 4.5 Multiplier = 450mhz. If you then increase the FSB to 110, you get 110 x 4.5 = 495mhz, and so on. I think you should leave the T-bird as is. Those things run sooo hot. To overclock it you will need a large Heatsink/Fan combo. Otherwise you could fry the CPU making it useless. You wont get more than 1.5ghz from this cpu.
