from what speed to what speed? I got a dual 366 O/c to 550 stable
like rock air cooled... I wouldn't bust the 100mhz limit of my FSB...

The ones I saw on pricewatch were mail-order and came from Valleyfield
or Markham.  Could also look at the ads section of the computer paper
or deja to search in mtl.general.

same thing. I intend on getting a 366 and putting it at 100 mhz (550),
but not many work with the normal heatsink. An alpha heatsink/fan or a
globalwin heatsing/fan works very well, though.

Well it depends on 3 things: the quality of the heatsink (size,
dissipation),
the speed of your fan (how many CFM) and also how you set it up
(do you put an extra fan for ventilation, do you use thermal compound)

I didn't put any compound at first, it would hang a bit when raytracing a
long
scene... but I added an extra chasis fan (they're cheap nowadays) and
the temperature dropped 2 degree... and I bought compound, I gained
8-9 degree on a processor and 4-5 on the other (note that I got 2 different

heat sinks, one standard and another that seems to have a thermal adhesive
thing, i'll remove it when I'll open my computer again, because I have a
delta
of 4-5 degrees between my cpus)... it helps a lot... I don't
think overpriced fans will help much more, better go Pelletier if you're
planning on buying any kits... I might experiment on that in my spare
time, but I wouldn't go over 100mhz FSB, I like the PCI to run
at full Specs since I use custom hardware... so probably I'd try a
100mhz FSB with 400 or 433 celerons with pelletier :) that would
rule :)

One thing is when I run single processor, Temperature is 4-5 degrees
less than when I fire up win2k :) in win2k the critical temperature
level to stay stable was 57 degrees for the cpus, and 53 internal. (I know,

it's hot.. but they can take it).  Right now I run around 46-52 depending
on the tasks or if I am single or dual processor.  Stable as a rock
