a sad story

well i have been working with a old p3 500 and i managed to get it to about 750

it has been going fine for about 3 weeks, then about 5 min ago it just seezed up and now wont kick over. i took the chip out to have a look, it is burnt black lol. it was so sad that chip has been with me for about 3 years it is a sham to just chuck it. dont worry guys i will take some pics of it....... and give them out soon.

That is indeed a sad story. If you would like, I'll play taps on my bugle for you.

Welcome aboard AOA's Forums, webhead! Sorry to hear of the demise of a family member. At least said member wasn't cut down in her or his youth.

wow, that was a great OC

probly one of them cases where "Motherboard Monitor" coulda saved you tho..

in the future, it's highly adviseable to keep close eye on temps, so you don't burn up anything more

good luck in future endeavors!

We all get them, we all love them...sooner or later we pretty much lose one to our naked ambition! Glad you found us webhead!
