Oh well, it's either overclocking or shelling out one grand for a new computer, take your pick. :roll:

Oh come on, you can buy a QUALITY desktop from Dell for $499, that even comes with the flat, thin LCD monitor. Even cheaper from Gateway (For good reason, mind you).

I doubt you can overclock it, my 133MHz gateway CANNOT be overclocked. There are NO multiplier-jumpers on it, they hardwired the motherboard and they disabled tweaking of the FSB. Don't bother. Buy a new $299 Dell with 800MHz Athlon in it.
