Hi,

have a Celeron "D" 2.66MHz running on an ASUS P4S800MX with 256Mb PC3200 DDR RAM and a Radeon 9550.

can i beef this toy up a little (a little......without any extra cooling added)??

In BIOS the default settings are.......
1. CPU Speed: 2667MHz (Manual,2667,4000)
2. CPU Frequency Multiplier: 20x
3. CPU External Frequency: 133/33
4. Memory Frequency MHz: 200 (133,166,200)

all i've adjusted so far is #4. I wacked the Memory from default 166 up to 200.

anything else i can do ?? Any suggestions (apart from getting a P4. lol) ??

if not, doesn't bother me. The toy is pretty quick

thanks

Raise 3 to 140/35 to raise your fsb to 560Mhz and cpu speed to 2.8Ghz.

if you want better performance, get more RAM. at least 512mb, if not 1gb. the amount of RAM is your biggest system bottleneck. other then that, do what ^^^ has said. does it have a factory Heat Sink Fan?

Argue for your limitations and sure enough, they're yours.

If your mobo permits dual channel, then diffentaly consider another stick of 256mb pc3200. Even if its not ,512mb will help in a substantial increase the responce time of your apps and games, so your hdd will not have to pretend its system ram.
