over clocking my rig. how far?

[msifan]

2.8Ghz ASUS P4S800
PC3200 512MB DDR 400
400W PWR SUPPLY
2 FANS, 1 REAR 1 SIDE

how far do you guys think i could push my rig without having to worry about any unstability issues?
right now i have it overclocked to 2940
multiplier is x14
FSB is 210
Bus Speed is 840

also, how would i go about bumping the voltage?
~ Thanks

bump it up slightly, probably 5mhz FSB @ a time to be safe if you don't know your hardware's limits.

the moment your system restarts on loading windows XP, you know you've hit the limit. go back into bios and down it by 5mhz FSB. run a comp burn in application. if it can run for 4 hours (on stock voltage) - 8 hours (with added voltage) without crashing, you know it's stable enough for everyday use.

2.8s can usually hit 3.3ghz @ least. on your motherboard however... it does look rather bleek as it's a sis chipset MB. if you hit 3.2ghz, great stuff. anymore and you're probably getting higher than average on that board.

i wouldn't exceed 1.6V on a mere OC. it's just not worth it. besides, stock voltage OC will always be more stable and faster than a added voltage OC (not that you can notice). in the BIOS screen where you adjust the FSB, there should be a voltage increase option.
