| Well.. My 166MMX is finally obsolete. My Abit BH6 and matching Celeron 300a arrived yesterday. I had to up the Vcore to 2.10 before it would run stably at 450 :( What voltage did you need, Mike? Anyway... rc5 contest jumped from 216 kkeys/sec to (...) (26 years ago, 27-Feb-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

After Metabyte's leak (see www.sharkyextreme.com) that they're finishing up work on a generic twin video card setup for April, video is either going to get a lot better, a lot cheaper, or both.

I tried it at 464 at 2.1 and it worked fine with ocassional lockups so I put it back to 450 at 2.1 and haven't had a lockup since. That's on my box. (...)

I already have a G200, and no real need for video-in. Sorry. And to tell you the truth - I intend (...) (26 years ago, 27-Feb-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

Hmm yeah... same mods, for most of them, but some are simpler than others - I'm just surprised you can't yet get pre-modified boards from some vendors. It would not be any of the large (...)

He just snorted and said Hell would freeze over before he'd pay someone $40 to solder two wires onto a board. Now I'd (...) (26 years ago, 28-Feb-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
