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."

My Mac Mini Project.

Now All I need is a Mac Mini to test this on and I'm all set. Although I dont know why you would want to overclock a Mac Mini with the possibility of overheat looming over it.

That's where my other project (In My Sig) comes in. I know it's a snowballs chance in hell that I'll get one this way, but at least I'm doing something interesting with the data I'm getting from it.

sometimes, I think apple folks don't understand how cheap PC hardware is.. similar to new PC's? WTF?... a quick pricewatch search shows a comparable mobo/cpu combo for $77 with an Athlon XP 1700+ 1.47GHZ cpu.

I'm in the same boat. I'd love to use OSx. I'd pay $100-$150 for it. But I'm not paying Apple for there outrageous hardware that I can't really upgrade. NO amount of delusion on your part can show that it isn't overpriced. It's simple market economics. there is so little price pressure on Apple compared to the pc world, where there are hundreds (thousands) of hardware companies competing on price/features.
