It seems that I'm todays man asking yestardays questions in this forum
I set up a K6-2+ 450 on a P5A-B. I am quite disapponted that what is limiting to overclock the BUS is the onboard memory (1Mb). I'm sure about this for the following:
- With 100FSB, I can go to 550 without any problem.
- Increasing to 105FSB even with low multiplier (4 or 4.5) makes the system stop after recognising the drives, maybe one step more. But no Windows at all.
- Disable External L2 (the onboard L2) makes the computer run perfectly, even at 120FSB.
How can I improve the onboard L2? I touch it and it was far to be even warm. The writings on it are (in case can help):
Elite MT
LP61&64128F-4
9915S M2S41UA
Also, I don't know if I can raise the voltage. Is the onboard L2 using the same as the core of the CPU? Right now I'm using 2.0 volts, so I'm confident to use 2.1 is this can make onboard L2 "overclockable". And for the HSF, don't worry, I'm using a big K7 model with 80mm fan.
Thanks for your help!
