Yeah But If you buy a Dell or Gateway you wouldn't overclock it
anyway, Most ppl who overclk are those who are too tight to buy the
part which rated for the faster speed, hey I overclocked my 166 to
180. But whats wrong with have all these jumper settings in the bios
so you can go in in over clock to your heart delight, but though
keystrokes rather than using a bloody torch and tweezers.
