umm, no. I have 3 DIMMS. the B0 is a 256MB PC133, the other two are 128MB PC100s. And the highest the CAS Latency goes is 3. unfortunately. Oh, and you said the life of a processor is on average 7 years? So that means my 2000 PIII wont last much longer?

Hey Merlin,

Welcome back! Your comment to Knight Wolf is interesting, it has always been my understanding that regardless of how well you overclock you are still risking a shorter life on the computer. Is that not true?

Look forward to seeing you around the forums,

@AW_33, sorry for interjecting on your thread, I do think this is an important point for all folks who are considering overclocking to have the answer to tho. I know Merlin can get your overclocking straight.

TTFN

LGW
