The Pentium III Coppermine 750E MHz processor offers marginal scalability, due to its relatively high 7.0× internal multiplier. Overclocking via the 133-MHz front-side bus rate will prove limited in most tweaking scenarios. The resulting 1000 MHz clock rate will often fail, assuming that the processor does boot at all, due to the massive increase in core voltage required to sustain such an overclock. A quality Peltier cooler, or something equally powerful, is definitely required if you hope to push the performance envelope.
