I have a compaq 7470. I downloaded the Sandra software and it said I could upgrade. This is what it said<br> <br>Processor....... AMD-K6 3D Processor @ 533mhz<br>Model Info..... K6-2 3D(Chomper) 266-550 2.2-2.4v<br> <br>Upgrade......... Supported Speed Says 600 mhz(or more)<br> <br>Is Chomper the motherboard type (brand)?<br><br>Paul<br> <br> <p></p><i></i>
Need a little more info...
OK, in Sandra, see the 'mainboard information' icon? Click on that one and see what manufacturer, model #, and serial # comes up and post that here.<br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

Re: Need a little more info...
Should work OK. Setting the voltage to 2.2 won't hurt the chip (mine is at that now). <p>AMD K6III+ 550 @619 2.2v~ DFI K6BV3+/66 Rev B 2 MB~ Cardex GF2 MX 400 4ns GS 250/250~ 256 MB Micron PC133 CAS2~ Aureal SQ2500 (I will miss Aureal)~ Maxtor Diamond Max Plus 45 46.1gb ~ etc etc etc</p><i></i>
Re: Need a little more info...
How do you raise the voltage to 2.2. Is that done on the mobo with the jumper settings? Can you do it through a program? I have no clue. But thank you for your input and help. <br><br>Paul <p></p><i></i>
Your voltage is already at 2.2; no need to change
The only thing you may need to change would be the multiplier, but 533 is a very good speed to work with should you not be able to find the jumper settings. <p></p><i></i>
