Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe indoors where possible 
Due to the lock down I am now more or less housebound so found a bit of time to sift through some stuff I had dumped in my spare room.
First the lows!
Managed to get hold of a Geforce 256 DDR for semi reasonable money, so what does the seller do? Send it bare in a jiffybag like a moron and it arrives bent. One less 256 in the world.
Full builds used to be a good way to pick up decent hardware but I find anything interesting now is pretty slim pickings and they certainly aint given away like they used to be.
Made out a Geforce 4 in this mess and thought I would take a chance on it.
Naff case, loads of useless legacy cards but I like K7S5A boards, has a Geforce ti4200 and has a Pally XP2000 under the cooler.
Boots and bad cap aside seemed fine so thought I would clean it all up and leave it as a complete system for now.
Cap replaced.
Case looks like crap but all works as it should now.
Except it doesnt as I didn't notice its solitary USB socket was smashed in on the board. Put a new one in and it still doesn't play ball properly. Lame.
I have several K7S5A in the loft but thats not the point. Meh.
Picked up a Asus Geforce 4 ti4200 and was met with this on the back of it.
Was about ti give the seller a ton of grief but had a bash at it with a nail brush ( ! ) and some Isopropanol and it has come up pretty clean. That missing R113 was blank from factory.
Result!
Here with the one out the previous system. Both bench very similar despite the more substantial card / faster ram.
Bonus Quadro 700 GXL, so much crap on old forums about them being useless for games, benches faster than the above ti4200, think its based on a Ti4400?
Pair of brand new MSI Kt3 Ultras. I like KT333 boards as they have universal AGP slots Smell great!
Had this a while but has huge hours on it ( about 28000 hours in the usage stats in bios) and had lots of corrosion like the Asus card. Gave it a good scrub with Isopropanol again and it came up like new.
I owned one of these back in the day the display never was much use to overclock with but they were really solid boards.
And bonus system i got for not alot and have had a ton of fun with playing some older games.
Nothing special at all, a CM Elite 330 case with broken power button, E5200, Poverty G31 mobo and a couple of gigs of DDR2.
Stuck a 8800GS in it and 4GB DDR2 and clocked the CPU to 3.33Ghz ( no voltage control). Has W7 32bit on it, works well for games of the era.
Had a blast playing Company of Heroes on it, even writing this post on it infact!
All for now

Dont look so with the CPUs sorted that way....
WTF with that cooling and speed, i think normal AIR cooler can handle such speed and voltage, no need of LN2 unless u go 3.5GHz ++... On 2.6GHz my cooler even under load is not even warm and if the CPU was able could go to ur speed and still not getting warm, now the VRM on the motherboard is another thing, need improvement, as when i did put the headsinks the CPU was normal barton on 2.2GHz...

Lol. Talk is cheap. Show me.
BTW, I give away 2.6 chips. They are a mediocre commodity.
The XP-M is your sig is all multi overclock with very little FSB increase, which typically is not the way you want to OC socket A. You want as much FSB as the board can stand. Your memory timings and speed are actually quite slow and loose also. So much so in fact, that from a benchmark point of view, I believe I can crush any score you put out with that at 2.6, with only a well tweaked 2.4.
Maybe you like to put your money where your mouth is?
Come talk again when you get close.

The XP-M 2800 sub was done with chilled air to the cooler, the XP-M 3000 was on DICE (Dry Ice), no LN2 required.
And all these by me were done on chilled water.
Check the list from CPU-Z through 1024M WPrime and there are a few others down the list too.
The chip HATES the cold so chilled is the only way I can do it, don't have an SS or I'd use it.
And we are having a competition with older stuff that starts later this evening.
I'll PM you the link so if you want, you can get in on it and see how you stack up vs the others that will appear. I'll even waive the registration requirement about being a registered member of the forum at the start of the comp in your case so if you happen to get the PM a bit late, it's no big deal.
EDIT:
PM sent.
Also, I'm not sure if it's OK or not to post a link to the comp and if it's a problem, mods please delete the link.
In this time where we are all stuck at home with little to do, I believe this would be a way to help pass the time.
So - If any of you want to participate it's all good.
To be fair towards TPU members, since I didn't post about it until now I'll extend the deadline for three days to register so if not registered by the end of April 3rd at midnight, US CST then it's too late period.
Just read the rules, you'll know what to do.
Please PM me with the forum name you'll be using there so I'll know you're a TPU member and can allow this exception.

Really u dont say.... The thing is u seems not to even understand what is the reason of my 462 system, one tip if u was so good (as it seems u try to show) at computer hardware and stuff, u was going to notice that my memory is 2GB, now try to OC the FSB of any 462 system with 2 sticks of 1 GB DDR400...
But it seems u dont get the whole idea, will just say it, can ur great OC FSB system be used as daily machine, nah cuz with this 1GB RAM will totally die in about everything, specially browsing, and the multitasking will suffer a lot as well.... And yes i did OC my FSB with Mushkin DDR500 to 250 on the ABIT and was stable like 30 minutes, after that did start to give errors and crashes, so much with the FSB OC on such system.... Not to mention everyone can OC stuff that are stable enough for benchmarking and nothing else !!! About who will crush who, well ur CPU is only 2.4GHz then wut mine have 200MHz more and i have 1GB more memory so my machine can be used as daily driver, while ur can be used only for benchmarks..
And does ur machine have the most powerful AGP card, X-Fi card, CM tube AMP panel, LED memory, idiotproof case and other..
My money are in my machine that can be used for daily driver, while u cant sadly.....
But it seems i hit a point u got salty when i said ur way of storing CPUs is not very good, now u compare OC and stuff, i dont OC most of my stuff, cuz i care for them to work the best possible stable way, and to be able to use them as daily driver...
(this picture is the resolution of an Sony Ericsson W200, so yeah we saw everything u know....)

Why would anyone want to run a 462 system as a daily? 
A retro gaming machine I would understand but not as a daily.
And I store most of my pga cpu's just like they do and I've never had an issue, I think your's were damaged because they were mishandled and not because of the method of storage.

Still using an A as a daily?
Yes, OC'ing one with 2GB's in is entirely doable IF you have the right sticks and I do.
You won't be hitting the same speeds as running a 1GB kit but it can be done regardless.
An A can still be used as one's daily but it's not going to be nearly as fast as something newer.
Believe it or not it could run Win 10 and only a 32 bit version of it.
Would be crawling instead of running.... But doable by the specs.

If you bypass DEP or NX-bit requirement before installation... OK ? (btw : same goes for Win8.x x86)
And assuming OS doesn't fall apart because your CPU doesn't support it.

And that's why I made sure to place a bit of emphasis on "Could" as shown here.
That's what it says and I'm not going to argue with it, just put the info out there as is for you guys to decide for yourselves.

I overclocked my Tbird so hard, that AIDA64 thinks it's an Athlon Ryzen CPU (logo)
^My Socket A collection (I got Palomino on it's way).
I got my 1GHz one running at 1.46GHz, need a better motherboard since the CPU isn't at its limits yet. Reposts from several pages ago:
Tho I guess my board died after that since it doesn't post anymore.

Just you wait until I get a better NF2 motherboard 
Also I'm getting a free HD 6870 tomorrow, a slight upgrade for my 3rd PC from HD 6850.

It was awesome, I still miss it. I had OCZ ram that was rated at cas 2.5 but would only run reliably at cas 2-3-3-11 up to I want to say 245fsb but I used to play with a bunch of bios so my results were a bit all over, meaning I don’t remember. I think I had more fun with it than 939. But 939 was ok too.. but not as good as 775 was.. but I loved 1366 so much I still have one in service, much more fun than my crap clocking tactical nuke that is my 1155. But she loves the abuse for now.
