Sorry if this is a newbie question, but how do I check my CPU/GPU temp in Windows?

search the forums for i8kfangui and i9kfangui and you should find what we're using. That only works on certain dell models though.

Ok, I am a proud owner of an I9300 with an overclocked Pentium 1.6 to 2.13GHz cpu.
I noticed that when I went to the Windows System Properties it shows that I have a "Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.6GHz 2.13GHz" I guess it's just stating that the physical processor is a 1.6GHz cpu running at 2.13 GHz. EDIT: One tip for you guys who are planning on doing this mod. When I was following the Dell Technical documents on how to take the palm Rest off, it states to take 11 screws off the bottom of the laptop then take the top palm rest off easily. Well, it didn't and I realized that I needed to still take the other screws off like the bluetooth module cover and the CD-ROM BAy lock screw. Good thing I didn't force it off! ![]()

What's the failure rate for 1.7@2.26?
![]() Also, how much worse is the batterylife at the pinmodded cpus, the minimum speed is 1ghz right? ![]() |

the battery life is the same for non-volt modded cpu's. in most cases those that overclock are also using rmclock to undervolt the overclocked processors. i'm running 1.6 overclocked to 2.1 ghz at 1.132 volts where all the stock processors run at 1.3.. so i actually have more battery life than when i started (not much, but a bit more) |

533FSB-CPU minimum MP is 6x (6x*133=800MHz) Pinmodded 400FSB-CPU's minimum MP is still 8x, which means 8x*133=1 GHz 1 GHz = more heat and power consumption than 800 MHz.Don't forget an no-pinmodded CPU can also be undervolted, so compare standard-voltage to standard-voltage, and undervolted to undervolted please. "My pinmodded and undervolted cpu has better batterylife than a standard Pentium M" just sounds stupid. ![]() |

hey what would happen if you did this on a 533Mhz P-M? Would it do anything or could it possibly f*** up your system.

both have min multi's of 6. at 400fsb, this would be 6x100=600mhz at 533, it would be 6x133=800

what??? Talking like an expert on the subject without actually doing it is what sounds stupid to me.Standard voltage to standard voltage, well then its 1.3 for both. No change. But the obvious fact is those that overclock are also keen to play around with voltages and compared to a -stock- 9300 they are achieving better battery life and better performance. |

It would run at 533 MHz just as it's supposed to.

really? it would be cool if it bumped the fsb up to 666Mhz

My 1.6 -> 2.13 is running at 800MHz right now. That's a 400FSB chip. Look at Everest's Overclock pane to watch it change clocks.

I tried to pin mod a dothan 1.5GHZ and it didn't work well for me. :-(
I checked the bios and it said 2.0GHZ. But windows would not boot up. Everytime I tried to start windows it would restart. I had to take it out... I'm one of the very few unlucky ones who couldn't do this mod :-(. I do have a dothan 1.5GHZ in another one of my laptops, I'll just pull it and see if it works and if the one that I bought works in that other laptop, then that would be awesome. |
