Obviously you don't know shit since tons of people have reported
pushing 90's to 120's and 100's to 120.  MAYBE if you knew a little
bit more you could have posted some intelligent.

Tim, it could be that you have the older series pentium (the one with
the gold seal on top) which I THINK is series 963.  The new series
(968 I think) has no gold seal and ONLY it can be overclocked past
100.  I have an old series 90 that will run at 100 but not 120 :(
