Need help OC'ing Palomino

[AtomicDude512]

I am new to OC'ing and I need some help. I have a MSI KT3 Ultra mobo and a Athlon XP 1700 "A". I was wondering what FSB I could get this to with little voltage bump. I wont unlock it. Since I have no dividers for PCI/AGP Lock I want to make sure my AGP and PCI Bus stay pretty much at the same frequencies.
I also have PC2700 DDR by Kingston installed. If you need anything else go My Rig. 🙂

Thanks!

never hurts to try first, go slow and work the FSB up a little at a time.

good luck

Only got it to 147FSB stable. Oh well...

about the same as my locked 1700+

I am new to overclocking, as you probably guessed. So if my FSB is at 145-147 where would that put the frequencies for my AGP and PCI bus? Thanks!

dat would be at 37Mhz... i guess the safest PCI bus speed is not to exceed 38Mhz, n that would mean u wont go past 152Mhz on ur FSB speed... i only manage to have mine stable at 146-147....

Put it at 1.85v and 166MHz. If it is an AGOIA it will do this no problems. If your board has a 1/5 pci divider, could be the 37MHz pci bus that is holding you back, 166 will set it back to 33MHz.
