You're gonna laugh, because that board isn't OCable ;)
such a shame , i have a 1,1ghz duron thunderbird and i managed to oc mine to 1.5ghz without probs , looking for a good cooler for it then i may try higher

also i had a 1.4ghz celeron and this dueon kicked the celeron even at 1.1ghz ,

my duron is actuialy similar spec to that except mine has 640mb ram and i have put a 32mb gpu in mine
 
Actually, it's intended for LAN parties, but also, I could use it for a proper Linux machine. All I need is a PCI VGA, a 9250 like (Doesn't need to be high end) and I should be set. a PCI audio card is also on target. My favorite second hand computer shop is there :D 5 bucks for a PCI VGA card that is 16MB+ and a sound card for the same price. They have DVI AGP card for 5 bucks!

The only drawback is that the CPU is soldered in, and that sucks, but I won't die.
 
Lan parties?? lol, what are you guys going to be playing? StarCraft??

lol, have fun w. it though, free is awesome.
 
That thing, with a PCI card, could run UT2004.

Can you overclock it?
Nope. It's locked. BIOS flashes are impossible to find. PC Chips is an ass with my board. That's the second onboard CPU I have and that's the second board they don't have in archives.

folding box..

hmm.... that actually gives me a good idea for a weekend project, I might turn my old PII dell optiplex into a folding box. Sure it won't be fast but it'll put the computer to good use :)
