Think i might mod the case on this and make it a bit of a sleeper. Not touched since the day it was built

The components actually look pretty decent in these old Alienware, compared to more modern ones, where they clearly cheaped out hard.

What i was referring to was that there were AMD chips in this era that could be overclocked by drawing on it with a pencil in the right spot. I think this is one of them, but i'm not sure and there's no marks on it so no one has tried before.

lol, you can go that with a few lga 775 cpus too, or just a peice of tape. same outcome.

I could use some help with this!

LGA775 wasn't as convenient though when I tried that for myself (got loads of LGA771 to 775 stickers though). My Athlon luckily either came modded or my motherboard just doesn't care. I'll probably find out when I swap it for my Duron.

I just got a couple c2d e4300's from my school, I might mess with them. My amd oc experience has been pretty good though. I was able to get 250mhz on my laptop's tf-20. I was never able to find any pin mod for it.

Yeah, was in the days before Dell caused them to sell out. The case weighs a ton and was clearly built to last. Kinda why i was thinking of doing something with it as cases these days are flimsy compared. Think airflow might be my greatest issue

2 ATI FireGL v3350, the 256MB pcie models (wow. pcie was a feature on gpus then)
