But one of them already OCing this processor to 2.1Ghz which safer point to OCing this CPU... So do you OC atom processor.... and what software did you use or using Bios is better than software.. sorry for noob question...

if u want to overclock this processor better buy normal processor better.

Yeah... but i just curious... because can stand the 1660Mhz stock limit with very low FSB.... run Win 7 very slow like turtle...

Actually I wonder Y they used so slow proc on netbooks. 1.6ghz for win XP also I can't stand the sluggishness. What more about windows 7. that's Y I'm still waiting for dual core to be widely available on netbooks, only will get one!

if theres any guide or tutorials for OCing Atom N450 without causing damages to the system like overheating , decreasing battery life and blowing the whole damm thing apart pls link it here..

thank you very much..

overclock with stock cooling will definitely increase the temp, for a netbook it mostly will overheat. and overclock 100% decrease the battery life.

luckily i did not buy Atom. because i really interested into ZOTAC IONITX-A-U Atom N330 1.6GHz Dual-Core Mini ITX Intel Motherboard for torrent and LCD HDTV purpose. but in the end i changed my mind and bough i7+P55. huhu.

no choice.. mainstream netbooks comes with atom..

izzit atom really tat slow even for suft net and email only??

Err wth with all this people complaining

I'm using a year old Acer One netbook with the older N270 1.6 GHz 1GB DDR2,945GZ,Win XP

I wonder what's with all the complaints and so on

Netbook are NOT meant for 1080P playback and so on,its for traveller who wants light personal computer to be carried around and not taking up space in their baggage..though the definition of Netbook says as Internet notebook

From my personal experience ,My Acer One can play 720P movies and can Play DOTA (Medium settings) and PES with (low settings), FIFA 2009 (Med settings)..I mean come on dudes,you dont expect to spend 1.3K on netbook and expect it to work wonders..well if u did,nothing wrong with the technology..only you who overestimate how things are

Atom are also meant for power saving feature,those who bought knows this..the N270 has a max TDP of 2.5 watts only..thats why my N270 with fully charged six cell battery can last for 5 hours..with gaming/movie playback can last around 3 hours

so there is nothing wrong with the technology actually..just that people do not understand the use of netbook paired with Atom series

yeah somehow, some desktop build in Atom processors.... i didnt need to save lot of power, just need to is anybody overclock this type of processor so that i can increase a little like to 2.1Ghz which safer to oc at this pt...
