How stable would a KT266A mobo be running at DDR333?

[MrCraphead]

I just purchased a XP1600 chip from Newegg and I intend to do a bit of overclocking with it. My question is, I have a Soyo Dragon Plus, which is a KT266A chipset motherboard and I was wondering how stable this chipset was when it is run at a memory speed of 333. Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks!

Oh, and Merry Christmas.

It can be done. You'll need good RAM - possibly cooling on there too. Not sure offhand what the cooling on the Dragon+ northbridge is, bt you may want to consider an Orb or the like to keep it cool. And naturally, a massive HSF combo.

I had my 1.33@1.67 for a bit. Stability issues (RAM) kept me down.

The cooling on the dragon consists of the usual chipset heatsink with a typical chipset fan on it. I suppose I'll pry it off and put a blue orb on there and see how it goes. thanks!
