Highest
overclocking results with Athlon:
At this time the Athlon is the best overclockable
CPU.
But why is it possible to overclock this CPU so easy ?
99% of the Athlon core is much higher than labeled outside, my two first
Athlon 500 have
650 cores inside.
If you compare the price of the Athlon 500 and 650 Athlon it's unbelievable
what AMD put inside their CPUs.
We don't know the exact reason why AMD gives their customers this joy.
One reason may be that they have higher CPUs which doesn't run stable
at these values without increasing
the Vcore.
An other reason might be they want to keep the production of lower Processors
as small as possible
to prevent outdated CPUs around the stock.
Fact is in any case that we can well overclock them
and that's most important.
To discover which core is really in the processor it's necessary to
open the case with skill,
intuitive feeling and also (at the right lower attachment bar) by force.
