No, it won't change if you reinstall.

No! Nothing! It really should be bulleted in the first post exactly the criteria needed is. I've been with this topic since it started and every other day, someone posts the exact same question that by now has been answered around 60 times in this topic alone. If you want, you can try it and report back. Nothing bad is going to happen. It'd just be like if you put a 2ghz 533fsb dothan into your 855. It'd register at 1.5ghz 400fsb.

Nope. Again, been asked numerous numerous times in this thread. The CPUID tag stays the same since it's programmed. But that's not the actual speed it's running at. If you look closer at the system properties page, you'll see it lists the cpuid tag which will remain whatever speed it really is, and the actual speed it's running at.

Is my Inspiron 700m apply to this pin mood?

I have an Insprion 700M, wondered if that one can be upgrade the same way, anybody has any idea?

I must have read between 90-95% of this thread and I have yet to see someone run a good CPU benchmark between the stock 533's and the pinmodded 400's! Anybody out there? Or if I missed it can I get some direction? I have the stock 2.0 and I want to find out if it's worth going to the pinmodded 2.4.

Reason no comparisons for stock 533 to pinmodded 400's is that there is no difference. For all intents and purposes, by doing bsel manipulation, end result is like native 533. As for 2->2.4, good luck. Performance is to be had, but 2.4 is not easy to come by. Not many people I've seen able to run 2.4 with stock vcore (1.34v or lower)

And I don't encourage vcore manipulation since it has ability to throw off intermediate values in speedstep, and since we are in laptop realm, vcore would eat away too much battery.

At long last, I finally joined the pinmod club, and have my 1.6 running stably at 2.13GHz. Thanks a lot to all who have contributed to this thread and this great mod!

I see on ebay a 2.1 dothan processor 400mhz fsb 478-pin (socket 479) 2MB L2 SL7V3 stepping B1 1.34vcore, can this be pinmodded?

It's very difficult to get a 2.1 stable in a laptop because you would have to throw a ton of voltage at it. Even then, some say it's not going to be stable, but I don't know about that. I've seen some desktop applications at 3 GHz or a little more. I just think it would require too much voltage and would overheat if you even could get it stable.

Why do you think they even made that Pentium M for then? People that don't care about battery life?

They don't make the CPUs with intentions of people overclocking them.

I see what you mean. That makes sense. Then the 1.8 is the highest 400mhz fsb CPU that can be pinmodded. Thanks!

Basically, the 1.8 (745) is about as far as you're going to go. I had great luck with mine and only had to up the voltage from 1.340 to 1.388. Some people can't get their 745 to overclock at all. A friend of mine just recently got a 745 and we tried to pinmod it. We gave it nearly 1.6 volts and it wouldn't even POST. So, you can try the 745 but I'm not going to guarantee that it will overclock at all. Basically, the lower the clock speed is on the CPU you get, the greater your chances are for a stable overclock. Good luck with your decision.

stick with a 1.6 or 1.7. people almost always can pin mod them with out any problem, the lower the better chance you will have. there are only a couple of people who have been able to get the 1.8 to work at all. but if you think it is a good rish, go for it, but the chances of it working are low

in a situation like that it's not even worth that much, I already have a 2.0. the only thing worth pinmodding is the 1.8. maybe I can find on ebay a chip that someone used for pinmod, then I'd get that one!

thats the way i would do it, if it works as a pin mod in someones machine, it should work in yours

Only problem with buying a chip that someone already knows can be pinmodded is that they might jack up the price for it. I know if I were to sell my 745, I would ask for more money because I know it can be pinmodded with a small voltage increase. I think that people would pay more for a 745 that is known to overclock well.
