XP2800/333 overclock question

[TA_Super_10]

The NForce2 chipset unlocks 12.5 multipliers and lower ("IF") the CPU has a default multiplier of 12.5 or lower. You have to connect pins or cut bridges to get that 13 multiplier or higher. Also the Nforce 2 has AGP/PCI lock so no worrying about dividers or burning up a HD either. Try running 200X11.5 for starters then go to 12 multi. Also are you running dual ddr mode since you have Nforce2 chipset?

Yes I am running dual ddr, corsair xms 3200 256mb. I don't use water cooling, does that matter? What max temps should I look for, idle/load?

Thanks,

I'll try the 11.5/200.

hard to say what your temps will be, it all depends on HSF and your case layout (wires, IDE cables, case fans). Just keep an eye out on them when you start overclocking. Good luck and let us know your results.
