:huh: I don't know how true this is, but I've heard that a bloke a bit south from me, overclocked his 2.4ghz P4 to a 3.6 with a 2 degree heat inscrease, using a 2 fan/heatsink setup. I'm really not sure about that thought, because it's over a Gigahert increase and I've never heard of anything so marvellous yet :D
No? I've seen a 1.8Ghz P4 overclocked to 3.5Ghz using dry ice cooling. It was just an experiment, as implementing such a method would cost thousands of (US) dollars. I've also seen a 3.06 overclocked to 4.5 using more conventional water-cooling (still quite expensive). The bottom line is.. P4 have much better headroom for overclocking. My friend cant get his athlon 2200+ over 1.9, and he has 7 fans in his case. :blink:
