Looking to get the most out of this board. My current settings in the bios are: CPU speed=manual, CPU Freq Multple=10.5X, CPU External Freq=133/33, Mem Freq=Auto, CPU VCORE setting=AUTO, CPU VCORE=1.750V, AGP Voltage=auto, DRAM Voltage=auto, System Performance=Optimal
According to WCPUID Utility-Internal Clock=1733.39mhz, System Bus=266.68mhz, System clock=133.34mhz DDR, Multiplier 13.0
The RAM is Generic. 80Gig H/D. Liteon CDR & DVD. ATI Radeon All In Wonder 7500 Video Card.

Any suggestions on overclocking the board? Also any suggestions on which ram (brand&type) to use to get the most from this board. Thanks in advance, Joe


 
Your ram will hold you back. This is good: link
You'll want to raise your front side bus (cpu external Freq). Then you'll probably get to the point where you need to lower the multi (cpu freq multiple). But if your vcore is at 1.75 you probably don't have a t-bred cpu (which come unlocked) so you'll have to unlock it if you want to lower the multi. You can search various forums for how to do that.
 
Here's a vote for Crucial. Great prices on ram now and you can run it at cas 2 no problems. Get the pc2700 to give yourself more room to increase the fsb, though you will have to lower the multiplier to take advantage of that, as pelikan said.

Crucial is the best to get for overclocking

you should get 1 sticks of 512MB that runs at DDR333 or faster(faster is better)
you want to lower your Multple and up the FSB(you may need to unlock your CPU to lower the Multple)
even if you get the same speed (1.7Ghz) with your FSB running higher your system will be running faster 😀
hope thats helps
