hmm.. so many opinions about overclocking -- im really impressed. the matter of fact is that i have been running linux on this o/c machine nearly for 6 months now. i did L-O-O-O-TS of cpu intensive work on it, including compilation recompilation of large codes too, and only 2(two) times it crashed, so it seems more than satisfactory for me. in fact, i tested this computer on different voltages and frequences in the past , and found that 300mhz 2v does not significanly differ from 450 mhz 2v in stability, but thats my own opinion. i also agree with that , if you want to spend money for better computer in future it does not really matter if your o/c one will work 4 yrs instead of 6 with better speed. p.s. that vast compilation, has just successfully finished in the exactly the same conditions.
