Is the Celeron a coppermine (0.18 micron?). I can't recall what MHz they
changed them at and if there was an overlap of models. If it is a coppermine
you should be able to overclock it quite a bit fairly safely. (I have a
600Mhz model doing 810 (90FSB) easilly, with standard cooler off a 400, if I
had a better cooler I'd up it to 100FSB)). If it's a coppermine I wouldn't
be surprised if you could run it at 750MHz (100FSB) with only maybe a little
voltage increase. (Lower spec'ed Cu-mines were 1.5v and higher ones 1.75v so
going up to 1.6-1.65 should be fine)

If it's not a coppermine but a mendicino then you're out of luck for
overclocking, the most I've ever got out of one of those was 545MHz.

I don't know what model it is. Is there a way to determine this using
software, or should I look at the CPU itself? Since it's a 'spare' CPU,
for which I have no use at all, I wouldn't really mind if it didn't
survive any overclocking experiments. ;)
