Was building a PC in work and was building a cheap system,
it had cheap DDR 333 and a Intel Celeron 2.4ghz
Was interested to see how far I could overclock it, when no one was looking lol I had a go, all this is done on nothing more than the Intel retail heatsink
I managed to get the 2.4 Celeron @ 3.64ghz, yes 3.64ghz just by raising the FSB :-0, and memory ended up running 400mhz, I was amazed at the speed increase, the system ran great, not a single problem and CPU temps overclocked were 42c idle and 53 at load, awesome
Anyone looking for a Celeron CPU and likes overclocking the 2.4ghz Celeron is amazing

Hightech Excalibur Radeon 9800 Pro Iceq 128mb
( Core 425 MHz and Memory 380 MHz )

It was a cheap Gigabyte 845gv motherboard
I raised the FSB 10mhz at a time and the CPU speed kept going up and up, it finally wouldn't boot at 3.70ghz but very stable at 3.64ghz, the board had a AGP and PCI divider to lower the AGP and PCI MHz
The memory was made by StarRam, never heard of them before but the memory was stable to at 400mhz, default memory speed was 333mhz________________________
