today, me and my friend assemble the computer, everything worked fine and what not. We went into the bios to oc the cpu some, and we first tried it at 12.5 mutliplier and 166mhz fsb, it booted fine and what not. We tried to do 200mhz fsb with the same multiplier, but to our expectation it didn't post, so we reset the cmos.

What I was wondering was if it was possible to get the fsb to run 9mhz more, so that it would be 175mhz instead of 166mhz. I still have to install my seriously awesome ebay ram :rolleyes: , and make sure that works. So if it is possible, i guess ill try running both sticks of ram at 175mhz, so that it can give me 2.2 ghz, instead of the 2.1 i have now. Is it even really worth it, the extra 100mhz?
 
Well you can try bumping vcore/vdimm but for 9mhz you shouldnt have to.... what are yer specs :)
 
here are my specs:

ASUS A7N8X-X
AMD Athlon 2400+ xp-m (Barton Core)
Can't remember the name of the brand of ram
Nvidia 6600GT

also we did bump the vcore up a couple of notches. Its at 1.65 right now, and i thin stock it was at 1.35 or 1.40.
