Have you tried it?

Has anyone here tried the Lindows OS yet. I have a Linux box at home and thought about switching over but I haven't heard anything about from any tech sites so I wanted to see what the user says..not the company.

Two things:<BR><BR>1) I see your overclocking your AMD 1700+ to 1.7 Ghz. Do you know (have you tested) whether your system is stable in 3DMark2001SE or Quake 3? The reason I ask is I have a Soyo K7V Plus w/ AMD 1800XP+, but when I overclock (e.g., above 133 mhz) the WinXP Pro system itself is stable, and I can ru napplication software, but it crashes when running 2001SE or Q3, so what's the point. <BR><BR>2) I see your mixing PC2100 and PC 2700 - I didn't think you could do that, and aren't the memory latency, etc, settings different?<BR><BR>

Ok, read your earlier post about your 3Dmark score with the R9000, so you can run 3Dmark and overclock. Guess I shouldn't feel too bad, my 3DMark score was 8126 using CPU stock settings (1800+) and a 64MB Radeon 8500 (core/mem = 250/500 mhz). My score goes up to 8430 when R8500 core/mem = 275/550, however, for some reason Q3 ain't too stable.

I have no problem with the PC2100 and PC2700 in my system. I have my latency tuned to 2 and command at 1T...no problems yet. I haven't picked out a PC2700 or PC3000 board yet because I'm waiting for the 2800+ w/333FSB, so I just stuck it in my system.

Colin from this web site wrote a good intro article on PC overclocking the other day in PC Stats news - see Colin's tips.

I will be posting some pictures on how to overclock XP processors w/ Window defog repair kits. When I get them posted or get them on my site I will let you know.
