I wanted to overclock my PIII850 to 935, but to do this I would have to have an FBS of 110 ( as you all know). Is a PCI frequency of 36.6 to high? It's only about 4 megahertz over the recommened. Looking for input. Most of my equipments is fairly new (except my mobo its a Abit BE6) Thanks in advance.

I don't think that is radical enough for most PCI devices. It's when you hit he "40's" that things start to happen.

Yo,
Will work fine at the frequency. If you have problems, it's not the FSB.

Ensure you have adequate cooling before attempting the overclock.

It's ok. PCI probs only arises at over 40 Mhz (most of the time).
