19276 2001-09-23 03:18:00 Hi, I have a pentium 75 cpu but wish to overclock this, and i donot know how. I also have 32MB ram. What do i do to make it 100? 133? 150mhz? 166Mhz? (if possible) Please help as this is urgent!!! Do i need to make changes to the bios or the hardware? Please!!! And I mean without buying a new cpu!!! Thanks!!! Guest (0)

19278 2001-09-23 04:50:00 Oh i don't care, just tell me how, i'm sure it won't if i had it on 100 and possibly 133 cause one computer guy once told me. So you might be wrong after all. Guest (0)
19279 2001-09-23 08:53:00 i have a 60mhz running at a 100mhz at the mo. try increasing it bit by bit and test before increasing any further, Guest (0)

Seriously tho, you want to increase your system bus speed or the multiplier or both.
Check out some good overclocking web sites on overclocking, but don't expect to find much except archives about people overclocking old p75chips. At a guess, i'd say that cpu is worth around $2 or $3 at best ;), so you don't have a lot to loose. Besides, overclocking is a fun hobby :)
