Best way to overclock the PIII 800 mHz w/100 mhz FSB?

I have a ASUS P3V4X and a PIII 800 running at 800 mhz. I know you can set FSB speeds in the jumper-free BIOS, but can you fool with the voltages? The processor seems to be clock-locked at above 8 for the multiplier setting (in BIOS). I also need to know if PC 133 RAM instead of PC 100 would do it any good if the processors running at 100 Mhz FSB.😱
 
If that model mobo uses the Via Apollo KT133 chipset, then I believe you can run that PC133 RAM at hostclk+PCI = 100+33 = 133, even though the FSB is at 100.

You could check the CPU database at overclockers.com to see what people have reported running at...
 
Poopsky: You will probably _have_ to up the voltage if you want to overclock it. Bump it up a bit, and increase the FSB speed.

I run my P3-750 at 1.85v 124mhz FSB (930mhz.) It's very stable.
