my pc is is made of

Duron 800
MSI K7T pro 2a
Hyndai pc-133 RAM 256Mb
a cooling fan that run at about 5000rpm
V7100 geforce2 mx
20Gb Maxtor Hard drive

well i have been about to get the FSB to 106 (stable)with a multiplier 0f 8x ,the temp of my cpu is about 44 which i think is to high. what fan should i get with an economical buget that would allow me to cool the cpu down. Also apart from connceting the L1 bridges what eles could i do to make my pc run like the wind.

any sugestion is welcomed...thank you[

Update to the 2.4 or latest OC bios. Set ram timings as SPD instead of Manual (this will set in 4-way inter). MSI KT7 Pro2a has multiplier problems. If i pencil in my Duron 700 and try to run it at 900+, it will run fine but on repeated reboots there is no post. So i just stick with FSB OC, currently at 805 (7x115). To tell you the truth i don't even feel a difference between 700 and 900+ Mhz. Benches tell a different story though. Aside from the multiplier problem the MSI KT7 Pro2a is a decent cheap board. Run Sisoft mem and cpu benches to see what performance your PC is running at. Mine is as follows
Duron 700@805 (7x115)
Cas2 Crucial pc133 @ Cas2 153 Mhz

Mem scores are 500/600 with oc bios 520/640.

Not too shabby for a SDRAM board. Peace out.

Try closing all L7 bridge so you get default 1.85 volt core, usually this solving the multiplier issue

Didn't solve my multiplier problem.... In fact it made it worse. I can get 8x at 1.80 but not with 1.85 using L7's or OC Bios. Go figure.

I can get my multiplier up to 10x with my duron 800 on that mobo, but with the restart/no post problem. 9.5x gives absolutely no probs. Want to get new ram so i can o/c more with fsb. Currently running 9.5x103.

Make sure you have a good heatsink/fan.
