Epox 8rda+ (vdd mod @ 1.82)
Twinmos/Windbond 3200 512mb
Atlon XP 2100+ @ 2100mhz (200 * 10.5) at default vcore 46c at load
@ 2200mhz (200 * 11) @ 1.75v

I can't seem to get 200 @ 11.5 stable even at 1.8 vcore.
I have the northbridge cooled with vantec iceberq.
I also haven't tried anything above 200 clock.

Can I go higher? Any suggestions?

looks good.
i think the reason why you can't get 2300 is because you are beginning to reach the chip's limit...try increasing the voltage higher

I'm at 2.30GHz w/ a XP 2100+ by means of: 177x13FSB

Sounds like you have some good memory, don't know if you really want to lower the FSB to try to attain a higher overall speed. You should see if it works though, benchmark and see which setup is faster overall.

I'm running some old school stuff on my first overclock, an MP2000. currently running prime stable at 31C/46C, idles at about 39C.
Ive got it at 166X10.5, which is not much of an overclock on stock speed, except for the higher bus.
It would not start windows at 11. Should I try a little voltage bump ( currently at default ), and give it another go? I tried it at 175 X 10, it started windows, failed prime right away. I think that might have been a memory problem.
Any suggestions for a beginner?

That looks like a hell of a good chip. I've got a 2100+ at 200*12, 1.75V and my temperatures for my system and CPU are 32C/51C respectively. With stock voltage, I was able to run it stably at 166x11 best. I've currently got a Vantec Aeroflow fan on the chip, but I've got an Alpha8045 HSF on the side that I'll probably give a shot later.
