in this Tweaktown Article they tried to smash into a Pentium 75 using a drill. Those pieces of silicon are tough muthas, i'll tell ya. i think they ended up just taking a hammer and nail to it so that they could show it who's boss. granted, a hammer+nail won't give you a PERFECT hole, but you could glue the pieces back together and make a keyring that way https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/6.gifQuote:

Do you guys know how to drill into the proceesor? I can't get a hole in it for the life of me.
currently running a P2-350 at 467. i'd OC it further, but my Iwill BX board doesn't support FSBs higher than 133mhz https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/08/2.gif

I've often wanted to buy a new chip just to see how far I could OC it. I still want to buy a celeron just to have gotten a good 533-1Ghz. It's the urge we're propelled by man.Quote:

It's weird, I feel like the system I've got right now could hit some really high speeds w/ a better chip. So instead of being happy with a pretty decent overclock, I've got this urge to go out and buy a new cpu just cuz I think I could go higher and it's the low quality of the CPU that's holding me back.

Hmm I wonder if they would let me use the ones at school.. For educational value of course.Quote:

Give them to my father or other relative. Or just keep them . Seti loves cpu cycles. Dad has 2 of my cast offs ( oops make that 3 ) currently .Quote:

What do you do with all the old/new CPU's? Do you have a pile of them sitting around, or do you sell 'em off?

My family gets my hand-me-downs too... just not at such a quick rate. I'd say about every 2-3 years I upgrade and somebody in the family gets my old system.Quote:
