Hi guys,I was reading the article about the chipset intel g33 and I read this phrase:
"We did modify another E2160 to run natively at 1066FSB and did reach a final 9x385 FSB setting."
You can find the phrase quoted at this page:

Does anynone knows how to modify the fsb so that the pentim 2160 run natively at 1066 fsb?

It is called the BSEL mod, and has been done since the days of the original slot 1 Celerons running at 266MHz. You can also mod the E2160 to run at a default 1333FSB. However, for either mod to work, your motherboard has to officially support that speed, plus some boards for whatever reason just absolutely will not boot when that mod is used.
