Ah, mild confusion... There were two links, I was referring more to the 2CPU one. The other was interesting, but I classed it more as amusement than practical. I'm not planning to OC at all, or otherwise do things that void warranties beyond watercooling which I'm doing for noise control, not performance.

I figure the performance I'll get from a system like I'm building will so totally blow what I'm using (P-200 w/ 64mb ram, etc.) away that I don't even need to think about OC'ing. Most benchmarks I've seen don't even go as slow as what I've got, the ones I have seen suggest about a 1500% improvement in some things with only a miserable 300% improvement in drive intensive stuff... I'm not worried about performance with those kind of improvements. (I tend to get a new system about every 7-10 years, so this will be the new baby for a while)
