I will overclock my CPU, AMD K6-200 to 225 MHz (3x75) or 249 MHz (3x83). Question is that the cooling is strong enough. I have already the stronger heatsink, applyed with the AMD, original. Have I to do more and are there more special coolers on the market ? My system: ASUS TX97-E , 64 MB SDRAM , Diamond Stealth 3D 2400 Pro, Seagate and Quantum Fireball HD's. Any suggestions ?

At that speed and with a large heatsink, you probably won't need anything else. If you start getting errors after the computer heats up, you should get some thermal compound and apply it between the CPU and the heatsink. You can buy it at radioshack.

I just use the ASUS cooler. The cpu gets as hot as 60 deg. The bios tell me on bootup that it runs 240MHz. In the following summay screen it tells me that it is running 250MHz. I believe the 250MHz setting is the correct one. The bios cpu temperature I dont believe. For starters it telles me that my cpu is over 40 deg right after turning it on (20 degrees over room temperature). This is with the 0108 bios. I will let my cpu run at 60 degrees as this is well below the 75 degrees considered the max temperature. If I just clock it at 225 (75*3), it gets a temperature of 54 degrees. I cannot remember what the temperature is when its not overclocked. My system: TX97-X, 2*32Mb SDRAM, Diamond Viper 330, Quantum Fireball. About that tx97 bios, when will we be able to control which interrupt lines will/will not trigger the powersafe mode? Other bios'es have the ability to control it, just the tx97 doesn't, which is strange as the manual says it is possible.

I have an AMD K6 pr200. What I want to know is ; how do you check the temperature of the CPU ???

i woulnd over clock it to 83*3 unless you have DIMMS because SIMMS are only made to goto 66Mhz's. if you have new memorey you can clock it to 75*3

It has a special pinout from the normal case/HD configuration for monitoring various voltage/temperates specific to the CPU. Hence prototype: I'm unaware of a case presently manufactured capable of utilizing those readings.
