I am still a little confused about which softmenu 3 settings to use for the best overclock situation. I have done the pencil trick and have sufficient cooling, yet I can't seem to get it to o/c higher than 1060. I have tried going to 11x100, no dice. I tried fsb/pci and won't go any higher than 100/33. I tried just fsb at 5 and 6 and it works but no higher. Can someone tell me what settings you would use to get it o/c to 1100 or higher. Maybe I need to change memory settings? Presently I am using turbo/turbo/turbo and cas 2. Below is my hardware setup.

ABIT KT7 (Not the 133A)
T-Bird 1000
Kingmax PC150 (256mb)
Alpha/Delta HS/Fan
SB Live Plat
Voodoo5 5500
Antec case with 350w PS

FSB + 5 or 6 is about all you'll get from a KT7. Set your memory to "hostclk+pci" if you already havent. This will get your memory to 133 and gain some real world performance Also, are you upping the FSB/PCI or just the FSB + setting?

I tried it both ways and anything over 1060 wil crash. I tried 100/33 and +5, +6 (OK) I tried 101,105,110/33,34,35 etc...and a combo of both, but anything over 1060 is unstable.
