the only reason i'm able to overclock the Celeron is the fact the motherboard has jumpers for the FSB settings lmao

i still have no idea how a 400MHz Celeron was *underclocked* to 300MHz when I first got it tho

I can't seem to find any way to actually change the multiplier (the jumpers don't change much at all)

ASUS ME-99VM Motherboard (SiS620/5595 chipset)
Celeron Mendocino 400MHz
512MB PC133 SDRAM (running at PC66 speeds)
nVidia RIVA TnT2 M64 32MB
Creative AWE32 CT2760
6GB main hard drive, 32GB secondary hdd
and a nice LG CD/DVD drive

two versions of the same song

one is just... a particular version associated with a certain meme

hey these super mario sunshine midis sound a bit...

too good on the awe32 lmao

oh whoops i forgot the 3.5 million note bad apple midi was in that folder

guess it's on my old comp now lmao

also the in-bios hardware monitor has the CPU temp peaking at 58 C

keep in mind that's bios idle, which is a high idle

also worth noting is the chipset (particularly the SiS620 North Bridge) gets extremely hot at anything higher than 600 (and is pretty hot at anything above 400 really)

Show thread

note that all these settings are (presumably) safe for the RAM (which uses the FSB speed unmultiplied) as it's PC133

as it stands:

-Totally stable at 400, 450, 500, and 540.

-Hangs while loading Windows at 570 (bluescreens in safe mode)

-Hangs right as Windows tries to load at 600

-Won't POST at any higher settings

@Vixlia if an 80MHz fsb setting existed, sure

there's an 83.3 that brings it to 500 tho (which it's stable at~)

@byte@blimps.xyz that's about right, though it can't really get higher than 600 due to chipset limitations (the 133MHz FSB setting is present, but the computer simply won't POST)

@Vixlia fwiw it at least boots at 600

can't make it into Windows tho

now keep in mind, all i can do is change the FSB

its multiplier is locked at x6.0

so how fast of an overclock do you think this 400MHz Celeron can handle? :3c

worldbuilding, webcomic idea???? 

tbh this may end up being a "few different stories in the same universe" type deal

I also wanna figure out how I can insert the Dvakiiri into this mess...
