*Wants to do this to cube*

I figured to pick up a Single 533 and clock it to 550, Do you guys think the 7450's (667, 733) will work in this same procedure? I tend to think they'd be too hot.

A dual 600 cube would be tight....

Can you slow the bus speed down from 133 to 100? And if you could, why would you want to? The 533/133 machine will be much faster than the 550/100.

Or is the best possible for this scenro a 533 overclocked to 600mhz dual? (6x multiplyer, 100mhz bus). Or is it feasible to go to a 133mhz bus on a cube or sawtooth?

Ah - I see what you were getting at now. I've never seen a cube up close (from far even), so I don't think I can help you.
