How hard is it to get a 1900+ to 2100+ @ 1.85v?

Wondering how hard it is to get a 1900+ (1600MHz) to a 2100+ (1733MHz) if I bump the chip to 1.85v? Reason being as my board doesn't support software multiplier adjustment and I'll be cutting/closing traces manually on the chip itself. Chaning 12x to 13x.

Got two chips...

Chip 1: AGNGA, week 50, year 01
Chip 2: AGOGA, week 51, year 01
 
I wouldn't say it's hard at all. Why bother cutting traces? Just bump the FSB to 144 and you're there.

I just did this same overclock tonight with an XP1900 OC to 1730mhz. stock dimm volt and core volt is at 1.8. Running prime 95 puts it at 46C. Doing it this way will increase the memory performance as well as the cpu.

I didn't look at the stepping so I can't tell you the code.
 
Tried doing that... Seems like the AMD 760MPX chipset is only stable up to 138MHz... At least for me.
 
I wouldn't think it would be too hard to do. Bumping the multiplyer up to 13x133 should be fairly easy on that chip, you might be able to go higher even if you have to take it all the way to 1.85volts cause I think the 1900+ needs 1.75volts so if you go to 1.8 or 1.85 you might be able to take it higher but it will vary from chip to chip. Just try unlocking both chips and then see what gives the best overclock. Does your mobo have higher than 13x multiplyers?
 
I got mine there (EDIT: 1900+ to 2100+), without changing the multiplier. I did have to tune down my RAM from CS2 back to CS2.5 (what it was before the O/C).

I didn't even push up the voltage that high, I only pushed it up to 1.775, IIRC. I could not get it above 146FSB no mater how much voltage I threw at it, though.
