good combo

the fsb on that chip is 266mhz, i want to increase it to 400mhz, same thing with the ram, the ram is 333mhz.
 
That cpu can be rated as 3200+ and FSB can go above 200MHz(double pumped=400Mhz) if the multiplier is 11x and Vcore 1.75. It can run around 2400MHz, but ONLY with hardware adjustements like I did with AMD athlon XP 2200+.
 
well on athlon XP's there are bridges which you can connect or disconnect (open and close), all athlons XP's are the same but the manufacturer changes the bridge combinations so it's cheap for them, the athlon xp can be maximum rated as 3200+, i had a 2200+, and now it's 3200+, take a look at this page, if something isn't really bright to you just ask ME, i've read it all

u can use a HB pen to connect the bridges, to get a athlon xp 3200+ connect all L3 bridges and all L11 bridges(1 in the middle stays closed), to get a barton core with 512kb cache connect all L2 bridges, use a microscope cuz it's too small
 
i haven't read the article yet, but ...

will i have to do these changes if i want to oc the thing to 2.3 ghz, and get my ram to run at 400mhz instead of 333mhz
 
well i had an athlon xp with 133MHz fsb (266) and the maximum i reached was 150MHz(300) so i had to decrease the multiplier to increase the fsb.

about the RAM, i don't think that it could run at 400MHz if it's 333MHz stock, but you could OC it to about 360Mhz

just use an HB pen and connect it, but be sure that u connect it, u can go buy silver spray and spray it if u want it like that, it wont damage your cpu
u can clean your cpu with nail polish remover or with liqiud that is used to clean the windows i used that :D

okay.

but is it possible to increase the fsb in the processor to 166mhz (333mhz) so that the processor reads the ram at 333mhz?

also i read the article and i was confused, i dont think i should be messing with that kind of stuff. And what exactly does connecting the bridges do?
 
it's possible to increase the fsb above 200MHz if you decrease the multiplier to 11x which can be done by connecting all the L3 bridges, i think it's possible to decrease the multiplier with software if u have an moblie xp.

u can buy the cheapest athlon xp and make the best one out of it becouse of this bridges, take a look at this, i had an amd athlon xp 2200+ and now have http://photobucket.com/albums/a249/filip-matijevic/?action=view&current=3200.png

some bridges like L11 change the voltage of the cpu, L3 bridges change the multiplier, L2 bridges change the amount of L2 cache, i had 256kb now have 512kb

as i said the fsb can be increased by lowering the multiplier, if your cpu has 133Mhz stock, it can't run at 166Mhz, i tried and the maximum is 150Mhz and still unstable

all the athlons xp with barton core are the same, exept these bridges, but u can change it yourself

weird. i was told by several people that there was no point in getting an 2800+, since all the barton core chips could be oc'ed to 3200+ specs. I wanted to get a 2800+ because it had an fsb of 333mhz instead of the 266mhz that the 2400+ xp-mobile has. The only good thing about the mobile is that it only uses 35w, and it supposidly runs at real low temps.
 
ok @towly and @flip-matijevic
you both need to get an understand of what fsb and mutliplier actually are, learn the meaning of fsb, core clock speed, internal bus speed.

filip-matijevic your xp 2200 mod will not work on his xp-m 2400+. There different cores and models

towly your right if you going to socket A then bartons are your overclocking kings (unless were talking semprons :) were they are still topish)
