OCing newbie here!!!
Hey a few months back I had bought one of the new Coolermaster Jet7 HSF's for my XP2200+, I accidentally busted the stock fan when tinkering (moving around) with some wires in my case while it was on, So I decided to go out & splurge on a Performance oriented HSF. I was wondering if anyone here has used this HSF for OCing, as I plan on putting a Mobile XP2500+ in my system in the next few months, I have a AOpen AK77-333 mobo, only supports 266fsb CPU's offically, & want to put in a XP-M 2500+ 266 CPU, & OC it a little, but was wondering how the Jet7 would fair with OCing this CPU (I would like to get it to about 2.1 or 2.2GHz if possible). I'm currently getting temps for my 2200+ around 51C min with fan cranked to max & 54C max with it down all the way. also I have checked the bios of my board & it shouldn't have any problem adjusting the voltage for the mobile CPU. I may even consider getting a better Heatsink to mate to the Jet7 blower, somthing a bit better, like the base for the newer Aero 7 & mate them together, have seen it done on the net somewhere, saw a review on how to do it somewhere. I also have to still see about getting some more round ATA cables to complement my existing Antec Cobra cables in my case (ATA & floppy) also need to install a better side panel mounted exhaust fan.
Any help, suggestions or positive comments would be greatly appreciated, as the only OCing experience I have had is OCing my Voodoo 3 3500 in my older PC & years ago OCing my old GF2MX200 card.
