OK, below is what I am currently running, and am quite happy I might add, however I am planning on building a small form factor cube system as a htpc/lan party box so it's easier to carry. Now to do this I want to upgrade the processor, memory and possibly the video card from current system so...

I've got some Kingmax PC2700 which will run at 200MHz but not stably. It'll do 190 easy tho. Think it's worth running at that speed even tho it runs AGP and PCI out of spec? I don't need to overclock the FSB in order to run my XP1700+ at ~2GHz cuz the multipliers are all availbale up to 12.5x on...

I am thinking of selling my 120Gig Maxtor 8MB buffer drive and replacing it with a 120 or 160GIG Maxtor SATA drive. Is this move a step up? or just a waste of my money? I play games, make lots of RAR files and download lots of stuff. Will this work well/better with my AMD system? My system is...

I've read about the wire in socket mod where you can achieve mults higher than 13x. I searched this ng and the web and haven't found any down to earth websites that describe how to do this. Does anyone have a link they'd mind sharing? Thanks! Brian

Can some one post the url for the site which shows the correct pins for the wire trick. I have a xp2500 which hopefully can be oced a bit.

Hi Is it possible to use this method to change older athlons and durons default multipliers? I ask as I'm using a gigabyte GA-7IEXH board with a 1000mhz duron. I can change the fsb but have no control over the multiplier. Thanks James
