I don't know what K6 (II+, III+, Cyrix, etc...) are like temp wise running full on. I do know they take a reasonable about of voltage stock, so looking at the voltage and the heat output of say an Athlon XP that I am familiar with and kind of go from there Well for example, a K62-500 @ 2.2v using a...

Re: Heatsinks?
So what are the best heatsinks to get for a (super) socket 7 motherboard? Do most socket A/370 coolers work on 7 boards? The biggest/badest thing that will fit that mobo! :twisted: Personally, I go for nice meaty PIII/Athlon Class heatsinks... though the beastie below (Thermo-Engine) is even BETTER...

I usually find such stuff @ swapmeets (enthusiast flea markets), eBay, people tossing out their old PC gear/upgrading OR in the clearance bin @ a PC builder's store ;) Speaking of which... I may soon inherit a 80386 class system as part of an upgrade exchange deal for one of my refurbished PC's (1Gh...

I've used Central Tweaking Unit (CTU) successfully before on Intel chipsets with CeleronA's, I dunno' what else it would work on but it was reasonably straight forward to use

RE: Stabilty
I've used HOTcpu a little before (I like the GUI), but generally test (overnight) with either Prime95 or SiSoft Sandra's burn-in suite ;) Primarily I'm testing the physical stability of the motherboard(s) 'post-op' (replacing capacitors) so longer duration stability tests are my need/focus :D BTW go...

RE: Finally got it going!
I had a later revision of that particular board, and though it is possible to run Simm & Dimm memory modules concurrently it is generally discouraged due to their differing voltage requirements

LMAO 90% of my eBay purchases are done in the remaining 30 seconds of the auction (leaves the winning bidder with a false sense of security)... so I guess that makes me a 'last minute Louie' though to be honest I prefer the title bidding sniper :D I can't believe that a slot1 motherboard fetched suc...

RE: Power Supply for AthlonXP
I'm afraid I can't recommend a dual rail PSU from experience... my last purchase for the 3700+ /939 Neo2 Platinum combo was a Codegen 550w (Which I've since recapped) Seasonic have always made robust quality PSU's IMHO, whilst I've heard really positive things about the Tagan and Enermax units, have...
