I have a small AMD K6 collection, a K6 200, K6-II 400 2.2V, K6-III 400 AFR with 2.2V, a K6-III+ 400 ACR 2.0V and the K6-III+ 500 ANZ 1.8V. The 400 ACR runs prime stable with 550 MHz and ~2.2V and the 500 ANZ works in one of my retro systems. It runs prime stable with 550 MHz (1.8V) and 600 MHz with …

Thunderbirds until 800MHz should work fine on the K7V. I have used the 750MHz T-Bird Slot A without any problems on my Epox 7KXA Rev. 0.4., also worked with an overclock to 825MHz (110MHz FSB, but only stable with a synchronous memory clock of 110MHz).

Tried another PSU? A strong 5V line is very important for fast AMD Athlon Slot A/Socket A processors. Also try out another RAM sticks. I recommend good PC133 CL2 memory modules, like this [/b] ones, which I am using. Here is a video from PhilsComputerLab of the PSU on Athlon K7 systems: https://www. …

My system ran Win2K, so that might be a Win98 (98ME?) issue indeed. A PCI-SATA controller running it´s own BIOS might have the best chance to work around this. Same problem with my PA2010+ (latest bios 1.13AB135), Pentium MMX 233 and Windows 98 SE, also with the latest unofficial Update Pack: UDMA …

Yep, the Tillamook mobiles were impressive overclockers. You can also find fake "Pentium MMX 300 MHz" CPU's from China, which are overclocked Tillamook 233 MHz CPU's.

I've been tinkering around with this game/crack on my Win98 Voodoo2 SLI rig - and it does play, but some of the textures are corrupted. At first I thought this was due to hardware limitations (Banshee had 16mb unified VRAM whereas my Voodoo2's have 4mb VRAM per TMU plus 4mb frame buffer) so maybe …
