SM12/IC Rebirth *Pics 56k Warning*

Ladies & Gents 'tis a magnificent & monumentous day for sure. For today, after a long & perilous journey across the Atlantic ocean, I'm proud to announce the rebirth of the new & improved SM/IC12!
As you can see she is nekid as the day she was born but her memory has been doubled to 512mb & the crappy cooling solution, which had a fan that was about to die, has been replaced with an Alpha Pal 8045 plus 120mm fan adaptor. Old skool, baby
Not only that but she's had a brain transplant and she now has a T'bird 1.2ghz, 100fsb (used to be 1000). And to further improve things I asked her politely if she'd like to try a little overclocking action, her reply was she was game for anything!
So she's been priming & folding for the last 4hrs at 10x133 fsb, sync'd memory without a hiccup.

I don't believe this one either - across the ocean and up and Folding in under a week!

Nice job, Jimborae!

It arrived yesterday & I started sorting her out straight away. She actually downloaded her first WU sometime last night but as i was working from home today I had lots of time to fettle.
The thing I don't believe is how well she runs a 133fsb, neither the memory or cpu were designed for it & T'bird 1200's were notoriously bad clockers. I had an AXIA T'Bird 1000 that I know can do 1.4ghz but when I dropped it in it would appear that time has done its damage & it was unstable as hell. Still 1.33ghz ain't to shabby.
