[TI-H] Re: OC'ing a Ti83SE
heat is proportional to power dissipation, and 4 AAA's won't provide much
power to dissipate. it's the frequency limitations of the other parts in the
calc, like the memory bus and I/O systems, as well as the stability of the
clock signal on a board that wasn't designed to take a very high frequency
clock.
just clock it until it breaks, and back off a bit. you'll probably see some
instability as the batteries decline, or, alternatively, until they DO
decline some.

Is there some safe speed limit for the regular 83+? Or do I have to cool it?
