I clear my CMOS so often i just made a swith that resets it... hehehehe
Makes life a lot easier, don't it?

yeah pain in the ass to open it again and again, and my clear acrylic case just pics up finger prints out of no-where... one of my goals though is to get an oldschool mobo, and have all the jumpers made to have switches, so i can show newbies what to do when OCing... easily... hehehehe
on the subject of overclocking, i today overclocked my amd xp 2000+ form 1.67ghz to 1.8 and its 120% stable. (12.5 x 144 or 6.25 x 288 whichever way you see it) and another thing is that my cpu and system temps havent increased
wow nice job, my bros computer uses a 2000+ hehehehe i will try that combo, nice job man!! not a single degree??
And have you run any tests to see if you actually gained anything?
I repeat...you MUST run a benchmark app.
I actually saw my scores start to go down, even as my (theoretical) speeds went up.
Your RAM is particularly susceptable to this phenomonon.
Even though I was able to boot using 5,2,2,2.5t RAM timing, I was losing bigtime points on the memory score. 6,3,3,2.5t gave me the best results.
Doesn't OCing just for the sake of saying that you've done it seem kind of pointless?
C'mon Kunal, you seem like a fairly bright guy, take the extra step and prove that you're doing yourself some good. Get PC Mark2002, reset your BIOS back to stock and run a test (just the CPU, memory and HDD tests will do). Then make a change and rerun the test. Keep track of your scores and what you changed at each stage.
Then you'll have something to brag about.
If all you are interested is higher frequency numbers, a smart man would simply go out and buy a faster chip....

clocker, need to download pcmark2002, ill do that when im home from school tomorrow.
but heres what i got using the benmarks in aida32:
Overclocked
2040MB/s Memory read
672MB/s Memory write
Stock
1884MB/s Memory Read
605MB/s Memory write
So as you can see these results look promising
Thank you and Way to Go!
You're the son I never had.
Wait a minute, Ido have a son...
Edit:Kunal, I hope you are familiar with clearing/resetting your CMOS as you will be doing it with increasing frequency as you approach the outer edges of the performance envelope. You can either leave your case side off to make access faster ( but then your temp figures are useless) or add a remote switch ( which will make you the envy of all your friends- except you won't have any friends if all you do is sit in your room and f*ck with your computer...).
Either way, be ready...

clocker this is unbelievably way of topic, but how are old are you (if you don't mind me asking)?
How old do you think I am?

that picture you have under your handle finally makes sense hehehe
