I can only get my FSB to 143. I have good PC2100- Crucial, non-ecc, cas2.5, 256mb X 2, with heat spreaders. I also have good case and chip cooling- Taisol CGK w/ a Big Voodoo Daddy 5800rpm fan (syst-23C, cpu 42C running Seti 24/7). I have tried running it maxxed out, and at relaxed settings. I am starting to wonder if it is my CPU limiting me. I have a XP1700+ w/ AGOGA stepping. I understand these are better than average OC'ers. 1.57ghz is nothing to sneeze at from a 1.47ghz, but I'm looking for the WOW!! OC'er. I'd like to keep this board, but if I can't hit 155+, I'd be inclined to sell it before my next upgrade (soon). I've seen these on reviews hitting 170+FSB with good PC2100 RAM. Any ideas?? I'm good at tweaking my bios settings, and I've maxxed out performance as much as I can with my current combo.

I have the same board and I've got it up to 1.67 GHz, but it would crash 5 minutes after it got into windows. The voltage was at 1.8. I used a Thermalright SLK-800 with a 92mm Globe fan of which I don't know the specs. The temperature would be 48 C after I got into windows. I don't know much about overclocking though; I was just fooling around.
