The way I understand processor fabbing to go, a chip maker makes up a batch of chips, then runs them through various tests. The ones that work at lower speeds get rated lower, the ones that stay in spec at higher speeds get marked higher. This means that a chip marked for a lower speed might well run fine for general use at higher speeds, and is the basis for the entire overclocking bit.
That said, if you're going to run a 25mhz part at 40, you definitely want at least a heat sync, and maybe even a fan.

Thanx alot!
I have a heath sink from the donor machine a Quadra 700 i believe. But no extra fan. So what happens if it gets to warm? Does it hang the machine or what are the signs? It runs now at 33Mhz and there is no problems as far as I can see.
Regards Peter
