Asus P3V4X Overclocking Question...

In the BIOS there are no options to change the PCI/AGP dividers, so I'm really scared of OCing too high and hurting other componets...anyway I managed to POST up to 126!!! FSB with my PIII 800E and I read somewhere Asus boards automatically change dividers past 120fsb to their respective amount? Is this true? If not, any idea how I can change the dividers? Thx.
 
dont worry about dividers, u cant change them, its probably auto. ocing... u cant really hurt components if it doesnt go past 143mhz..

nice board, used ot have it
 
Well, its not like its going to blow up so why dont you calm down a bit?

I dont think you can control the PCI divider, you can only control the AGP divider with the DIP switches. So it'll most likely still use 1/3 PCI for FSBs under 133, when you hit 133, it'll start using 1/4. The thing is, if you can run you system stable using 1/3 PCI divider, you'll be fine.
 
<<u cant really hurt components if it doesnt go past 143mhz..>>

Why 143? Why not 160? Did you just make that number up?

143MHz with 1/4 PCI divider gives you ~36MHz PCI, that is a lot lower than 126MHz which results a 42MHz PCI bus!
