Nothing special, because from my motherboard can not change cpu voltage and after 217 Mhz bus speed the bios tell me that i need to reduce bus speed and the PC won't boot. I will test this night on orthos on small FTTs, priority 9.

I got it running stable at 3.0GHz, it ran an Everest stability test all night and didn't fail.

It Bluescreened on 3.2GHz this morning so I've increased the Voltage a little bit. How high can I/should I take the voltage on this thing?

Voltage is currently at 1.4v

i must be the only person on neowin slumming it with a single core celeron. :D

but a 100% overclock isn't too shabby and it's capable of running 64bit windows so it's a good enough stop gap until i get something better.

4GHz+ is completely possible but I need PC8500 memory for this as my GSkill in 8GB config does not like running at it's EPP mode of 1GHz.

    • Universal USB Installer 2.0.3.7 by Razvan Serea The Universal USB Installer (UUI) is a powerful bootable USB software tool for creating USB boot drives from ISO files, perfect for installing Linux or Windows, running live systems, or building diagnostic toolkits. This versatile ISO-to-USB software makes it easy to boot from USB and create Live USBs for Linux distributions, Windows setup installers, antivirus tools, and system diagnostic utilities. Whether you need a multisystem Windows Media Creation Tool, a Live USB Linux installer, or an all-in-one PC diagnostic toolkit, UUI offers a reliable and flexible Linux and Windows bootable USB creator. Effortlessly carry your favorite portable operating systems and essential troubleshooting and diagnostic tools on a single flash drive or USB boot stick. Take your preferred Live Linux distributions, Windows installers, recovery software, backup utilities, and diagnostic tools with you, all bootable from a single USB drive. No more juggling multiple USB sticks or complicated bootloaders, UUI consolidates everything into one flexible, multiboot solution. Using this open source USB boot maker software is easy as 123. To create a Linux or Windows bootable USB drive, you simply select your target flash drive, choose your distribution from the list, browse to the ISO file (or choose to download the ISO), and then click Create. Once finished, you should have a ready to run Live USB containing the Live operating system, Windows installation media, or system diagnostics utility, or advanced system cleaner tool you previously selected. Universal USB Installer 2.0.3.7 changelog: Expanded the distro and tool catalog with additional popular Linux ISO entries. Updated: several distro homepage and download links, including Ubuntu Unity, Garuda Linux, Arch Linux, Fedora, Manjaro, and SystemRescue.

    • You are clueless. The updates are done in the background so the next time you open Edge the updates are applied automatically. There is no need to close all your tabs. Just keep browsing like you normally do. Clearly you don't use Edge and are just one of those haters that complain for the sake of complaining.
    • I don't get this David. Can you explain it please.  
    • Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
