AMD core codenames?

What motherboard do you have?

If you have heard about the Atomic magazine, they have a forum about overclocking and how to do it. It is possible to overclock everything.

I don't know what motherboard I have right now.
A friend of mine went off to the Taiwanesse army, and left his computer with me.

All I know about it is that it has a 1GHz Pentium III, 511MBs of memory (I have 2x256, but it only registers 511), a crappy 4MB onboard video (I've got a 128MB comming), a 70GB HDD, a DVD player and a CD R-RW.

I have no idea what kind of mobo it is or how to find out, or what my P3 really is or anything like that. I've gotten into the BIOS, but I can't adjust anything worthwhile.

Do you know how I can find out what I have now?

yea download a program called cpu-z. Its free and awesome, tells you the specs of your computer

Cool! That cpu-z app rocks. Here's the low down on what I got.

Intel Pentium III E 1000MHz
codename Coppermine-T
multiplier x 10.0
FSB 100.2 MHz
16KBs of L1 cache
256KBs of L2 cache

MOBO:
Asus Model CUW-AM/MEW-AM, 2.07

BIOS:
Phoenix Technologies LTD revision 2.10

If you think I can overclock this in any way without laying down cold hard cash for some fancy pants thing, I'll give it a go. I'll check out that Atomic Mag.

I have the AMD athalon 3000+ 64, with the winchestor core. Does any one know how well this will overclock? I want to push it about as far as it will go. As far as cooling goes, all im using is the stock heatsink/fan. Cant afford water cooling

www.overclockers.com has a pretty nice search feature to see what others have clocked up to and their settings, along with mobo and core. Here is the LINK to the search page they are using... Just select your CPU from the AMD menu and click "Get the Goods!"... Hope this helps..

Thing with athlons is they allow you to change the FSB, but not the Multiplier. You should be able to push your CPU as high as your mobo's FSB will allow. Safely and without watercooling anyway.
The FX series is cool because its completely unlocked.
