Any experience OC'ing the new XP2600+ 333 MHz FSB processor?

I'm thinking of getting the new XP2600+, Corsair PC3200 CL2, and Epox 8K5A3+ MB. I need some real speed for real-time video editing. Would waiting for the nForce2 MBs be worth the wait? Any opinions/options appreciated.
 
Just got my XP2600+ (333) on the 22nd (monday)

I had problems booting at the default Cosair mem settings that ALL the other AMD chips I used loved.
(1.2 t-bird, 1.4 t-bird, XP1600+) - using my KX7-333 v1.1

So ,,, after some BIOS testing ... (lots... about 4 days)
I had to turn off some stuff for memory and processor enhancement.
Memory - 4 bank interleave OFF (was 4)
- Command rate 2T (was 1T)
CPU - normal code rate (was fast)
- no enhance for benchmark (extra .6 fsb)

Im at 11 x 192.3 = 2115 right now.

Using W2K SP3, DX8.1, and ATI 6200C
(check my signature for system specs)

Not using 4 bank interleave and 1T command took a big hit on my 3dMark, but the FSB makes up for it so far.

3dMark 15,586
