I have an Intel Celeron M 410, socket M. It runs at 1.46Ghz, and it is just to slow. I might have tp upgrade to a better cpu, but i just don't have the money right now. So if anyone can help i would think you greatly. Any links would help.


Thanks.

sorry youre out of luck. the logic behind my coming up with the pinmod a year and a half ago for the 915mobile chipsets was based on the fact that it could handle both 400 and 533fsb cpu's. at the time, the pm715 was dirt cheap with all the dell coupons at the time, and the top of the line pm760 was $700 more. both shared a common multiplier, and by doing the pinmod to up the fsb from 400 to 533, it ran as a 760 all day long.

unfortunately, your speed is a multiple of 133, so it's not doable in terms of pinmod. you could probably use clockgen, but i doubt your pci/pcie would be locked down, and so you wouldnt be able to get far. i hear prices are real cheap for 715's on ebay, if you wanted to get one and pinmod it up.

edit: holy shit they werent kidding. fucking cheap as hell: http://cgi.ebay.com/SL7GL-Intel-Pen...ryZ31534QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem
what a good friggin deal. hell, even 725's are dirt cheap, and pretty much all of the newer weeks can hit 2.13 stable. 2.26 is even good percentage. 2.4 is low low low percentage though.

i have my 715 @760 with lowered vcore from stock 1.34v to 1.18v and it's stable 247. also dropped speedstep 800mhz from 0.988v to 0.7v and it gives me about 15-20 more minutes of battery life in comparison.


You gotta know though that celeron m vs dothan isn't a big speed difference clock for clock, since it isn't memory starved. the celeron has no speed stepping though so it's more wasteful on battery. on the other hand, once you mod it up to 2.0 or 2.13, it'll be quite a fair bit faster than your 1.46 due to the nature of the higher clocks.

Thanks for all the info. I will try and see what clockgen does for me. I dont know much about OC'ing laptops. Nor do i when it somes to pin mods. And another thing, who actually decied one day to do a pin mod? Oh and this laptop is a Dell Latitude D520.

Well I started the initial posting about pinmodding for the sonoma last year here at [H] but was met with more closed minded people, saying that laptops should not be overclocked. I then found notebookforums and got a bunch of people interested but no test subjects. Pinmodding is nothing new at all. There were ways to go about it back in the slot1 days, and became really mainstream for xeons starting with the fcpga's following suit (did they run on s370 too or not?). So really all I did was take an already in use idea and apply it to laptops. Since no one wanted to test, and I was getting a laptop anyway, I was the first to test and post pictures of everything. It then caught on like wildfire and a few people took most of the credit for it :confused:
