Ok...so here I am trying to OC my athlon 3200+ a lil ~200Mhz over its default 2000Mhz. In order to increase the processor speed I have to lower my HHT and increase the HTT frequency and maybe lower my processor divider...is that correct?

Say I lower my HTT to 4X and increase HTT freq to 250 and also lower divider to 9. I will be getting 2250Mhz right? What does this have to do with my memory? What memory settings should I have for better performance? My settings right now are 2.5-3-3 2T and two more some really high numbers like 13 and 16 (thats what I see in the bios). What you guys can you tell me about this???

Thanks...then HTT freq is the same as mem freq...I wonder if I can go 250 1:1 with my Green Mushkin at stock voltage...anyone here using Mushkin greenline??? I already posted this but no answers yet :s
