Gigabyte GA-7ZX overclocking?

I have a Gigabyte GA-7ZX Socket-A KT133 motherboard, with a TBird 700, and I'm wondering what my options are as far as overclocking. I obviously don't have any options in the BIOS for oc'ing, and the Gigabyte Easytune program doesn't seem to work. SoftFSB doesn't have the correct controller for this board, so that's not an option. As far as I can tell, the only option I have is using the dip switches on the board to up the FSB to 105, maybe 110 if I'm lucky. I'd like to oc using a multiplier, however I don't think that's possible with this mobo. Any suggestions? Besides buying an Abit or Asus mobo?
Thanks in advance.

I posted a response about Gigabyte in a different thread and LXi challenged it but AFAIK, Gigabyte has never offered much for overclockers. Maybe a slight FSB tweaks but no Core Voltage tweaks to get higher. The new Gigabyte KT133A mobo (forget the name, check out the review at OCWORKBENCH), has lots of OCing features, FSB, Multiplier, various voltages, etc I still say this is a first for Gigabyte which makes excellent mobos.
