June 17, 201411 yr Hi there, I found in my bookshelf an old motherboard that had been really good for overclocking CedarMill CPUs before people was starting using x48 board for that. I managed to reach 8GHz with that board. Here is that result http://hwbot.org/submission/996270_maj0r_cpu_frequency_pentium_4_631_8040_mhz. This board is ASUS Commando. There is one problem with it - some elements burnt and after that repaired. As you can see at the picture two elements have been removed(they are in red circles). Without them board is working well, but I have no idea how it overclocks. I'm selling that board as is, without warranty or moneyback. I checked twice that it works. I want just 50 USD plus shipping from Ukraine. Edited July 26, 201411 yr by MaJ0r
June 19, 201411 yr Author I ment one element from those two which have been removed was broken during overclocking session. After drying board that element looked like it was burned or destoyed and mb didn't work before I removed them
June 19, 201411 yr That is two mosfets removed. Basically making it a 7-phase vrm instead of default 8. They are D-Pak, easily replaced. Stock mosfets are AP85T03GH or a mix NIKOS P0903BDG + P75N02LDG. (I think it's P0903BDG in that position) Hope that helps...

I totally forgot about it and thought that it isn't working now. Last time I used that MB 4 years ago. Now I only want some additional money for studying
