I was little bored this night and desided to overclock an old Pentium II 233 that I got from Overklokk earlier (the CPU was lying around in his Volvo). Tried first with water and later with a custom build phase change cooler. Actually got it to post at 466 MHz which is a 100% overclock.
Maximum VCORE on the motherboard is 3,5 V, maximum specs for the Klamath core is 4,2 V.
Here's some pics of the project:
Satan: Opteron 165 - TT Big Typhoon - DFI Lanparty NF4 SLI-DR - OCZ EB PC3500 2x512MB - Asus Radeon X800 XT - Raptor 74GB x2 RAID0

OLD SCHOOL OVERCLOCKING!!!
Hey what were the best parts back then?
Nice thing is with this stuff you have no fear
Try to get %100 on your FX
dam u were bored? :p

Great work !
lol
I love old school attacks.
I had my old Celeron 300A @ 600mhz with ice water - great fun
Dude
great!!
i love old school OC!

Yeah, that is an awesome OC for a 233 PII!

Nice OC mate
Lol, makes you think how they were something else, but now they are a fraction of today's CPU's.
Old school is cool. Nice job there
Well done!
My 233 MHz Klamath is stable at 350 MHz @ stock voltage @ stock cooling.
However, never got it to be stable any higher.

YES!! Now this is my kind of overclock (says the king of slot 1 d2ol crunching).

Then, it started smoking, temperature still rising. But, I stopped before any fires started. Started to smolder the PCB though...
Thanks guys!
I'm little suprised that the external L2 cache worked at these speeds.
Nice farm angrysquirrel.
masterofpuppets: Ouch, I heard that the smoke is really healthy.

this L2 cache problem is only on p2, early slot p3, and slot athlon.Thanks guys!

if you have any pentium or pentium mmx lying around give it a try under that sucker. but, i really can not think of anything better than a celeron to put under that. not quite 100% overclock, but i had a celeron 300a almost prime stable at 540 (but 3dmark stable)

XFX 6800 16/6 NV5 @420/936, 1.33V
It is a P2 Deimos
All along the watchtower the watchmen watch the eternal return.
well the old school celerons were quite capable of 100% oc with water. Well the 300mhz ones anyway.
but 33-40% oc's were comon place with older intel's.
My buddy had his celeron 600@ 950mhz with stock volts for months and it was completly stable.
I had a p3 650@ 1026 or something with minival volt changes.
wow, thats so cool. Crank it up to 4.2 and get 500mhz.
i have a slot1 celeron 300A i think, lemme know if you want it
No school like old school

im going to OC my old PIII 666 (demon PIII) sayaa maybe your AH6 will work with my demon cpu.
nice old school OC maybe you can send the PIC to intel public relation team PII under phase change.
and that is xtreme oc and extreme Vcore too

NICE. Looks like my PII Xeon 450mhz needs to get out of retirement.
Nice OC.. I miss my old celly 366, it would do 605 on air. Wish I had it now to see if I could get anymore out of it.

Awesome, simply awesome dude!
Can't quite tell from the pic though - is that grey insulating foam on the slot CPU PCB or condensation?

Just send it over, 3V + gonna make it suffer.

If you rip those l2 cache chips off and disable l2 cache on the bios you should be able to oc it quite a bit more. I would not be suprised if you got 650mhz like that, Then show us some super pi records....lolJust send it over, 3V + gonna make it suffer.
