I'll be setting up for WC soon, just waiting on a few more components. My main intention is to quiet my pc, but some mild OC would be nice. I have not OC'd since my celery 300A, the two AMD's I've used since then always ran stock. I currently have a P4 2.66 with a Intel stock HSF. I tried OCing it to day just to see what it would do with air cooling but I didn't have much luck. I set the FSB at 150, and the DDR mult at 2.66 to give me 400 on the mem (Corsair xms 3200). It booted into windows but crashed as soon as I tried to run 3dMark 2003. This was at default voltages. I then bumped the core up to 1.75v and the mem up to 2.8v, with the same results. I'm honestly a little disappointed, I would have thought a 150 fsb achievable even with stock cooling. Granted I didn't experiment with lower fsb's. I'm holding off until I go over to WC next week. My question is based on the minimal testing I did, will WCing my system give me a good shot at 150 fsb and 3.0 , or should I just set my hopes for a quiet 2.66. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, my celery 300a was a long time ago, but as I remember it all I needed to do was switch from 100 fsb to 133 fsb.
