Dothan overclocking thread

Should I pick up a Pentium M 740 with the stepping..

7418A068 SL7EN
RH80536 1800/2M

I'm hoping to stick this in my laptop and pin mod it without having to increase my voltages. Think I have a good chance?

The fsb pinmod only works with the 7x5 processors. According to that serial number, the processor is a 745. So the pinmod will work, but chances are that you're going to have to increase voltage (which you can also do via pin jumpers btw) to get it stable at 533MHz fsb. Your basically talking about running a B1 at 2.4GHz with 1.308 volts. Chances are it's not going to happen.

BTW this is the wrong thread. PM me if you need some more info.
