- You can't go faster without an accelerator. The CPU is clocked to run at that
- speed, and even if you did overclock the CPU somehow, your RAM bus speed would
- hold you back.
-
- I'd upgrade your machine to something designed in the last 8 years, it's not
- worth using a 500 for much anymore... sorry, but that's the truth.
