Will a coppermine CPU die instantly on voltage over 1,65?

Liquid Snake,

Yep....sorry; the CA2 750's are really dogs. I'm in the same situation as you. I've tried a lot of things to get above 840, but with no luck (won't even post). I would get infrequent crashes, so I backed down to 825.

I'm getting myself an Celermine 566!
Has anyone had any experience with Gigabytes Slot adaptercards?

I didn't touch the voltage. I'm not trying to overclock it to the extreme, just trying to get a little speed boost, so I don't really want to spend the $ on an Alpha.

Anyway, I've been running 825 for about a week, and I've had no problems.

I've been playing with a "CelerMine" 600 for about a week on one of my P3B-F systems. So far;

1. it survived 1.8v during some overclock tests with no smoke or flames.

2. I'm using the Gigabyte GA-6R7pro/6R7+ (jumperless) and it works just perfectly. Might be the best slotkey I've used.

Im currently checking out a MSI K7Pro MB.
And if it doesent show any "funny" Glitches i might buy it and a K7 900Mhz!
