GA-7IXE and K7V are here, K7V needs a re-cap at a bare minimum. As it's likely to be the better 'clocker I'm going to focus my time on getting it running before looking at the Gigabyte board. Hopefully get a run in this afternoon/evening. With it having Universal AGP I might be able to run a 6800 …

Re: Slot A: Aiming for the stars

My Slot A Ironbridge system currently has a Voodoo 3 3000 AGP. I will be able to submit some 3DMark scores with it, but they won't be competitive. Fish story - The one that got away Yesterday, on the bay, I saw a Radeon 9800 Pro with both 3.3V and 1.5V keys for less than $50 USD, and I impulsively …

It only lets me clock it to 1070 same as my 900. I score more with my 900 overclocked to 1070 because I have a higher bus speed for …

Re: Slot A thunderbird mod?

Hello, Awhile back i seen where someone added resisters to a Pentium pro CPU to make it more stable at higher overclocks. I'm wondering if its possible to do the same with Slot A thunderbirds.

Just bought 10 of these https://www.ebay.com/itm/325276918502 Figured why not. Could also be some higher rated cores hiding. I have a couple Durons I can sacrifice for the cause.

Re: Slot A: Aiming for the stars

Yeah, thats the fun part. We also have to be mindful that newer GPU drivers are expecting faster cpus. The drivers will have more overhead compared to older cards and drives. Have to find the sweet spot. Also make sure you installed the agp miniport driver for your board.
