Still failed to get stable dual 4.5x124MHz. Prime gives error within a minute. 3.7V chipset voltage, upgraded heatsink and thermal paste on chipset. 110MHz rock stable though. More voltage didn't do any good. Too bad there's no bus speed option between 110 and 124. I might try the chipset decoupling...
Today I finally replaced caps on my BP6 that I bought dead. Booted right up first with a single Celeron 400, then i tested the second cpu socket by putting a Celeron 300A there, detected 2 processors. Tried some overclocking with one processor too, 4.5x124MHz was the best i got to boot OS. 4.5x133MH...

The BX doesn't have a memory divider.. it's always 1:1 FSB:MEM. My system is now at 100MHz, memory timings at 3-3-3. These two sticks have been running just fine at 140MHz bus for two years in another system.. The system had frozen overnight when I left it running two instances of prime. D'oh. :( I ...

I know quite a bit about BX-boards, stuff like the BX-chipset requires 3.3V to work, and that on this board the 3.3V rail is used directly without additional circuitry to generate it for the northbridge. And memory, too. The processors are P3-600E with default voltage 1.75V. Tried overclocking these...

Had some time to tinker with the soldering iron.. The article about dual coppermines on BP6 was helpful, my slotkets just needed the BR1-signal routed to N33. Now it's up and running, but even at 100MHz fsb burnBX (somekind of chipset testing program) fails. Maybe a fan on the chipset or slight bump...

Oldskool dual
Hi! I've had this dual board Tyan Thunder 100 for some time with dual P3-450's, but got a very tempting offer of 40++ euros for the procs and sold them at instant :D Now the board has 2x celeron 300A PPGA's on gigabyte GA-GR7 slotkets @504MHz (these procs can do 600MHz default voltage). The boards s...
