Hello everyone,

I have a ABIT BE6-II motherboard and I will have a Celeron 1.1GHZ and 128K. Does anyone have this motherboard and did they overclock their CPU? If you overclocked what is the highest did you have for the Celeron 1.1GHZ 128K processor.

unfortunatly the celeron 1.1 w/ the cu-mine core does not have much head room, honestly you would be lucky to squeeze another 150mhz out of it. That mobo is very good for overclocking and can easily overclock to 150+ fsb, so your mobo will not limit you.

Hi piii_Man,

I haven't tried to go to 150 FSB because I cannot go up to there with my Celeron 500MHZ. Is the Celeron 1.1GHZ "Locked" because it will not let you overclock at certain speeds?. I have a Celeron at 500 MHZ and I over clocked to 563MHZ only because when I overclocked up to 600MHZ or to 653MHZ it crashes the operating system and the computer frozed. I just orded a Celeron 1.1GHZ this week so I will have to wait until it arrive. I know this mobo is out of dated and I should not upgrade my CPU but its too slow to run applications now. I tried to go at 100MHZ FSB with the Celeron 500 MHZ but it will not go. It is stuck at 66MHZ FSB for the Celeron 500 MHZ. I guess the Celeron 500 MHZ is "Locked". I hope the new Celeron 1.1GHZ is not locked and I can push the FSB to 150+ or higher that would be great.

Do you have that motherboard and that CPU too? If you do what is the highest GHZ for the Celeron 1.1 did you overclocked it too.

OMG you're completely clueless. First of all, ALL Celerons have a multiplier lock. You can only increase the bus speed.

Looking at your OLD Celeron, it had the Mendicino core which was known to overclock in the range of 500-600MHz top, depending on the processor itself. Now, the 300A version could go to 450MHz at 100Mhz FSB easily. The 333A could go to 500MHz at 100MHz FSB easily. The 366A could sometimes go to 550MHz at 100MHz bus. It really depended on the quality of the specific processor, but ALL were limited below 600MHz!

OK, now looking at the Coppermine. It wouldn't go very much above 1.1GHz. In fact, the PIII 1.13GHz Coppermine was recalled because of data errors. So 1.10GHz was about the best Intel could get from it. You might get 1.2GHz, maybe a bit more. It's a BAD choice for overclocking.

Your BEST choice for overclocking is the 1.1GHz with 256k. That Celeron uses the Tualatin core, which clocks MUCH higher. The 1.1GHz Tualatin can EASILY hit 1466MHz at 133MHz bus.

And now you're thinking "those don't work on my board" and of course your wrong. You'd want to purchase a Tualatin adapter with adjustable voltage controll, the BEST choice being the Upgradeware Slot-T. It cost $20 here in the U.S. and you can find a distributor list at <A HREF="http://www.upgradeware.com" target="_new">http://www.upgradeware.com</A>

Hi Crashman,

Thank you for you information. I apperciate it. Thank you for the link.

I've USED the Slot-T on YOUR board, I referbished YOUR board for the retail market, I tested EVERY ONE using the Slot-T with a Tualatin Celeron 1.1GHz at 1650MHz. EVERY SINGLE ONE! <A HREF="http://www.upgradeware.com/english/product/slott/compatibility.htm" target="_new">Here's your compatability list</A>, like it matters since I've already assured you of compatability, and <A HREF="http://www.strattoncomputer.com/slot1-fcpga2.html" target="_new">Here's where to buy it in the U.S.</A>

Glad I could help!

Oh, your board also supports low density PC133 modules of up to 256MB/slot, if you need some more, <A HREF="http://www.crucial.com/store/listparts.asp?Mfr+Productline=ABIT++Motherboards&mfr=ABIT&cat=RAM&model=BE6-II&submit=Go" target="_new">Here's a list from the most reliable supplier of these low density modules</A>, and <A HREF="http://www.crucial.com/store/PartSpecs.asp?imodule=CT32M64S4D7E&cat=RAM" target="_new">This is the module I always recommend for any standard BX chipset motherboard</A>

Hi Crashman,

Thank you but no thank you for referbish my mobo. My Mobo memory is already upgrade to a 512MB. So that is enough memory. For that computer its a slow computer butI connect that to my network to go on to the internet. I built myself a new computer already its a AMD 2400XP+ 2.0 GHZ. 1GB of memory 80GB HD space. I just see what the price for older CPU was. I bought the Celeron 1.1GHZ for $38.00. But I just wanted to upgrade my old computer so I can run the application faster and go to the Internet where it loads page faster that is all.

I wasn't offering.

I sold refurbised motherboards. You see, I was a board refurbisher. I'd buy nonworking boards in bulk, repair them, load the latest BIOS, test them, and sell them. When I said "your" board I was refering to boards identicle to yours.

Good News I just got my Celeron 1.1GHZ 128K today. I will over clock this baby and see how far it will go with my ABIT BE6-II mobo. I will post my result after I test it.

Mike C
 
BAD NEWS. My CPU did not work when it arrive DOA. So now I have to "EXCHANGE" the CPU and then I will post my results with the NEW CPU. I hope my EXHANGE CPU will work.

Mike C🙁
 
HI Rick_Criswell,

Yes the CPU is a coppermine core because it has a 128K 1.75v 100 FSB. It saids that on the CPU when I got it. This CPU has a .18 micro. The tualtin core has a 256K 100 FSB .13 micron.
 
Are you sure your Slot to Socket adapter is Coppermine compatable?

HI Crashman,

Yes my Slot to Socket adapter is a Coppermine compatable becuase I have a Celeron 500MHZ 128K 66 FSB.
 
No sir! All Celeron 500's used the Mendicino core. Your adapter should have a "PIII/Celeron" or "FC-PGA/PPGA" selector on it if it's Coppermine compatable. The current setting would be for Mendicino core Celerons ONLY, no coppermines, not even Coppermine Celerons. You would have to use the Coppermine setting to make it work with the new processor (sometimes labled PIII or FCPGA).

If you adapter has no settings, it's PPGA (Mendicino core) ONLY, and not compatable with Coppermines.

Hi Crashman,

Here is what my adaptor says 370SP Card "the transfer card of Intel Celeron PPGA 370 processor on the Slot1." On the back of the packaging it says Use Intel Celeron PPGA 370 processor on your slot1 mainboard now.
 
LOL, that's funny. How does it feel to know you sent back a perfectly working processor because you had the wrong adapter?

PPGA refers to the old style processor package used on most Intel Pentium MMX and Celeron processors. The only processors that work are the Mendicino core Celerons.

You need a new adapter. You might as well get the Upgradeware Slot-T for $20, because that works with both Coppermine and Tualatin core processors. But then if you have that adapter, you might as well get a Tualatin Celeron 1.1 instead of a Coppermine. And they cost about the same. But the Tualatin has twice the cache and overclocks nicely to 1466MHz (at least).

Hi Crashman,

I feel upset and stupid now because I wasted my $$ sending the shipping back. Now I know the difference since you explain it too me. I spend to much $$$ now because I bought the Celeron 128K 100FSB for $32.00 and added shipping $6.50 total is $38.50. Now I have to buy another adaptor which is going to cost me about another $12 or so. I don't think I am going to but a Tualain Celeron processor becuase I spend too much $$$. I know a Tualain process is I just bought a Celeron 1.1 128K 100FSB total for $38.50. I am not go to pay a Celeron 1.1 256K 100FSB for $39-$45 to get a Tualain processor. I think I will just buy a PPGA/FCPGA Flip Chip Coppermine Socket 370 to Slot 1 converter card only. I will pay for $12 for that card.

You help me a lot. I apperciate it. I learn something new know that I did not know before.

Again thank you very mcuh. I am sad that I wasted my $$$ and happy that I learn something new from you.

I will reply my result when I get my NEW adaptor and my returned CPU.

Mike C :) 🙁
 
Yes, I kind of wished you had mentioned all this earlier, before spending the extra cash.

The Coppermine Celeron 1100 will never be a great performer, it should get you PIII 800E performance.

Hi Crashman,

If I had told you ealier it would be better but I did not know that Intel has these things. But now I know thank you again. Oh you know I am going to buy this socket because of this CPU. Please tell me if this is comptable with the Celeron 1.1 128K 100FSB thanks. I know the Coppermine Celeron 1100 will not be a great performer but if it overlcock to 1.2 or to 1.3 it will do for me. I am happy then.

Yes, those work for Coppermines, I've used them before. So using one for your 1100 shouldn't be a problem.

Thank you very much for help. I apperciate it. I will post my results and overclock useage when I get the retured CPU and ordered my new adaptor.
