I've searched 17 or 18 pages into this forum, and found no definitive answer about this queastion:

Can the Morgan Core Durons (1300) be unlocked?

As of now, my Duron 1300 is running at 1417 MHz. This is all to do with the FSB from 100 to 109 MHz. My Temps never go above 44C (even running Seti@home, which is a good heat/stability tester) And my core voltage is at 1.64 Volts (1.75 default).

I chose that because it kept my PCI bus down to 35 MHz. My PC133 Ram is running at 142 MHz.


A-Bit KT7E
KT-133E Chipset 686B Southbridge
Duron 1300
Cheap PC133 RAM
WD 40 Gig
Maxtor 40 Gig
GeForce 4 MX440 (Problem with 686B South Bridge?)
Hercules Muse 5.1 Sound
And like 7 80MM Fans (Including CPU fan).

From my experiences (though little with overclocking something other than a K6-2 or K6-3) I would say the Morgan 1300 (not 1200, or the Spitfire Duron) cannot be unlocked. If you have actual experience with this, please tell me the secret.

Thanks

I did a little searching and the answer is: no.

But it seems that you can change the multiplier by cutting and connecting some L3 and L4 bridges.

My dual-PSU PC is so powerfull that the neighbourhood dimms when I turn it on :eek:
