Project "Celeron"
I have an nvida riva 128zx card that is with my ibm p2-400. I'm playing around now with an abit bx133 raid board and a 766 celery.
I was doing some reading on overclocking and found a program to overclock the riva 128zx. The riva 128zx was built around the 440bx chipset and the agp bus is supposed to be at its best around 66mhz (thus the 1/1 setting for a 66fsb and a 2/3 setting for the 100fsb) and yet the riva has a 100mhz 128bit architecture. Are these not related? How do they correlate or are they independent? I'll be running around 95fsb with the celery I think - I got it to post to 1150 (11.5 x 100 @ 1.85v) but this was just a post - haven't installed windows yet. Should I use the 1/1 agp setting?
Now, I should mention that this vidoe card is just laying around and thought I'd play around with it - don't want to stick many $ into a vid card as I don't do much graphic intensive apps/games. I also have an ati xpert98 card laying around - don't know if either is better than the other.
On to some other questions I have. How can I tell what stepping my celeron has?
It says SL4P6 on it if that is a clue. Is pc133 known to step down to a 66fsb? I have a stick of pc133 corsair cas2 and it seems to run fine at stock 66fsb setting and of course fine at the 100fsb. Also, what is system1 and system2 temps and how are they measured? These are shown in the bios-pc health along with the cpu temp(thermistor).
Well, that's probably too many questions for one post but thought I get them out before I forget them. I'll post what I get for a stable speed with windows running.
Thank you for all replies!
