Hi all. This is a followup to my recent post about overclocking a l7vmm3
with a xp athlon cpu. Thank you all for your help. However, I've just
realized it's a 5 bit athlon. Does this make any difference?

Thanks
Tom

Oops, my mistake. I think its a regular xp athlon, but it does have five L1
bridges.

This is correct. The Thunderbird (original socket-A K7) has a 4-bit FID,
whereas the Palomino (first Athlon XP) and newer have 5-bit FIDs. No it
doesn't change anything Smile
