OT - overclocking Celerons - I think that you can get a small speed boost by running it at a 75 mhz bus. However, your PCI slots will then run at higher than spec. Most of the new, fast Celerons are not stable at higher speeds. They're multiplier locked, so the only option is to bump up the bus speed. I'm not planning on overclocking at all. Sharky Extreme (http://www.sharkyextreme.com) has a good write-up on overclocking Celerons as does Anandtech (http://www.anandtech.com). They also have reviews of the new V3's. Sharky is more negative about the V3 (likes the TNT2 Ultra much more), but the reviews are not all that bad and I recognize that he needs a little hype to get readers. The print mags do the same all the time (check out the covers of most PC and Gaming mags and you'll see what I mean). Speaking of the print mags - their websites are a great source of reviews for printers, monitors, and such. Michael
