DIY Mac mini Overclocking
mirko writes "So, you wanted a 1,42GHz Mac mini but either because of some distribution woes or because of your tight budget you could just get a 1,25GHz ?
Don't worry : Leo Bodnar just found out how to overclock your machine. Of course, you'll have to open it prior to anything else but you already know how to do this."
So you are saying the warranty is valid only if you don't need it? :)
This is for the electrical engineers:
Why is the MoBo blue? Is there a signifigance to the color of the board? Or did Apple just pick it because on the order sheet it was "aqua"?
Because Red mobos run the fastest, and Apple didn't want to make the Mac Mini too fast otherwise it would have killed G5 sales.

Sorry, but if someone is going to tell me how to open my brand new computer and mess around with its internal workings, I don't want to read things like this:
Here is the bottom of the board. Or whatever you call it.
The next comment I write will be ready soon, but subscribers can beat the rush and see it early!
Funnily enough, the BMW Mini One can be 'overclocked' too. Like the CPU in the two Mac Mini models, both the One and the Cooper have the same 1.6 litre engine, the only difference being the engine management software.
We don't get the Mini One in the US; I had to look it up. 90 horsepower? You poor bastards.
Downmodding is the refuge of the weak. Don't downmod, make a better argument!
