Title sums it up short and sweet. THG says 38mhz max. What do you guys think? right now i'm at 37.9Mhz for my pci but it's rock stable i'm thinking i can go higher fsb but i'm noy sure if my pci's are locked and if not i'll go past 38mhz. Whats the danger zone for PCI frequencys?

The max I've ever gotten to is 38.5 before things started crapping out. After that I was getting data corruption, hd failure, etc. Definitely no more then 40, but you might be lucky to get around 39.
