Ehm.. I'm pritty sure if you clock it to over 70 that the internal FPU will start to mallfunction. I'm also pritty sure that it's of interest to ppl to know if you got an 060/50, 060/50(A) or 060/60 version CPU also.

What kind of cooling do you have on that beast? My B1260 got a nice lil fan blowing air on it + legs to lift up my A1200 about 1cm and sure I'm temted to overclock it to perhaps 55-60Mhz with this mod. But to go to 80Mhz you need some serious cooling and a tower I presume. :-D

Ehm, akemust... I am able to read but Heatsink&Fan doesn't say very much. There's a pritty big span between a P1 heatsing&fan and a Athlon heatsink&fan. My fan is a simple P1 fan and I'm leaning against adding a modded P1 heatsing to make it fit underneath the f***ing simm. :-D I don't think such cooling is enough for a 60% overclocking of the 060 though, am I right? :-?
