                             PLUG Meeting
                           February 7, 2000
                           7:00PM, PHYS 112

                       Topic: CPU Overclocking

This Monday night's PLUG meeting will feature a presentation by Steve
Bourland on CPU overclocking.  Steve has prior experience in the
microprocessor industry and has particular insight into this black
art.  After a rough overview of the basic theory of operation of the
microprocessor and it's internal components he'll go into a discussion
about why certain components can be reliably run at higher clock rates
(as well as why some cannot).  Steve will also demonstrate the process
on a live computer.

This will be a discussion based presentation--bring your wildest
questions.  Come and learn how to make your hardware faster!

Pizza and drinks provided.

Hope to see you there. (Tell your friends!)

Later,
Max
