Just wanted to see what all you guys have your xp chips overclocked to! Any cool watercooling stories..?? anything over 100mhz over stock and stable..?? I am not an expert on overclocking so I am not sure the limit, but here is what I have manages to squeek out of mine and still run stable. It is an overclocked 2100+

I downloaded that program and ran it, I can run it at 139 all day long and 140 if I feel like it but it can become a little unstable playing games at 140. Hope that is the info you want!

I'm confused. You said you have overclocked your AMD XP 2100+ in your original post, but CPUID shows that it's a 2200+. I don't believe this would change even with overclocking. What's the deal?
I personally have never overclocked a component in my life (I'm ashamed to say). Ever since my AMD T-Bird 1 GHz 200 MHz FSB processor ran ~160-165 for almost a year I've been scared of heat, and despite significantly lower temps now on that, and my AMD XP 1900+, I still haven't overclocked (fears stick with you...can't help it). Additionally, the way I see it, overclocking a processor a few MHz isn't going to provide a noticable performance increase...perhaps a few dozen points on 3dMark, but in real-world situations I don't believe the gains to be noticable (oooooh, my Q3 performacne jumped from 153 to 158 fps [/scarcasm]).

Dude I have a 2100+ *LOL* even when you overclock it, it shows a 2200+ in the bios, as well as in windows. ask anyone that has overclocked there xp :). what you think I am showing a 2200+ underclocked..?? *LOL* look at the speed the FSB is set to, if I did that with a 2200+ I would be in the 1900mhz range.
