    overclocking ECS K7S5A

    I got 384mb of pc133 RAM
    and ECS K7S5A board with XP1700+

    Is there any way to overclock this rig?

    I tried to bios FSB change, but it is limited to
    100/100, 100/133, and 133/133

    is there any chance I can o/c my system?
    (My pc 133 ram is tested, and it goes around 148mhz without a hitch)


    Any tips for overclocking AthlonXP1700+ is welcome
    Strengths
    stock fan
    2200mhz @ stock v-core (200 X 11)
    2300mhz @ 1.75v (200 X 11.5)
    2400mhz @ 1.95v (200 X 12.0)

    Going higher than 2400mhz is near impossible with air cooling.

    Well, there was a bios floating around a while back that allowed for FSB ajustment...ask around, or do a search.

    And you'll still have no VCore adjustment...so any seriouc OCing is out of the question

    i use a program called CPUFSB. 146.6 fsb is very unstable, and even 142mhz fsb crashes once in a while, so i just leave it at 138. this is not an overclocking board
