Strategy

Notice the major change in wattage requirements for the K75 800 at default settings compared to its 750 MHz sibling. With a peak power demand of 48 watts, this processor can produce extreme heat at its factory set speed. Accordingly, a quality heatsink should be installed before attempting an overclock. Expect returns in the 900 to 1000 MHz range with traditional forced-air heatsink coolers.
