Strategy

The Pentium II Deschutes 400 MHz offers moderate overclocking potential. Most systems featuring this processor reach their potential around 500 MHz, with good cooling. Those users hoping to reach the 133-MHz front-side bus speed in order to attain 532-MHz operation will likely fail unless extreme cooling is implemented. The .25-micron core die size, combined with the external cache of the Pentium II processor, limits overclocking to the 500 to 550 MHz range for most P2 400 units. Successful overclocking with the P2 400 will most likely require activating the 112-MHz front-side bus speed.
