Tualatin celeron 1GHz @ 1333 MHz on BX board!!!



This is how:

First my system specs:

Mainboard:      Gigabyte BX2000 (just regular bx board)
Slotconvertor:  Soltek SL-02A++ fcpga > slot1 convertor>
Memory:           1 x 256 mb 1 x 128 mb 133 MHz no brand
Video:              Asus V17100 pure geforce 2mx

Following picture shows what has to be done



Remove pin AN3 AK4 AJ3

I was to chicken to just cut the pins of so I insulated the pins using isolation from a VERY small wire


Since I am lucky to have a nice slotconvertor with lots of jumpers on it to select voltage on it, I did not have to do any vss vid25 connection or whatsoever :) If u think you need to do this read another how to !! (links will follow)

Most of the forums I read people were told to make a connection between pin AK4 and AK26 if they're modded system would not boout or was instable. Some ppl even say it might give ur better OC speeds. I did not make this connection 'cause I didn't experience any difficulties :)

After I did this I put the cpu back on the slotconvertor and jumpered the converter to 1,5V The proc wants 1,475 officially

I just turned on power and it posted as a PIII 1.33 GHz whoohoo :) after it posted I tried to put the fsb to 133 MHz 'cause that's what i bought it 4 ;) This was no problem either it just booted en started my Windows me without probs

After I booted, I installed WCPUID here is the screenie :)


This made me quite happy :)

Well after a few rounds counterstrike to test reliablitiy (really) I installed Sisoft Sandra to do some benchmarks, Here are some pics

Cpu Arithmetic Benchmark

Cpu Multi-Media Benchmark

After these benches I was even more happy with my new cpu :) As suspected The memory bench marks we're not that impressive

Memory Bandwidth Benchmark

Well that's pretty much all I have to tell u 'bout it it. I've been playing with it for a couple of hours now and not a single hang-up or whatsoever. I think I'm pretty happy with this CPU and Considering I only paid 100 euro to get it I must say: 1 hell of an upgrade Big bang for ur buck ;)

Now I can find a new purpose for my old cell2 533a@800 :)

notice: I did not invent this MOD or summin, I just did what other real smart ppl figured out.Check these links to find 'em.
