Overclock advice....

[jpk]

I have a Abit NF-7 v2.0 mother board with a AMD Athlon 2800+XP Barton core installed. Right now I'm running it at 333mhz FSB. I'd like to know if this CPU would...could....run at 400mhz. Pretty happy with the speed now but a little more never hurts.

Well, I think that relies on your ram more than your cpu. You can always lower your multiplier if your cpu can't handle it.

I have 1 gig of corsair ram. Don't think it's value ram but here's the info on it from cpu-z.
166.4 mhz
1:1 fsb dram
2.5 cas latancy
3-3-7
2 515 meg chips set up in dual channel on the mobo.

Do you know what speed your RAM is? (pc-3200, pc-2700, etc.)? I have a Athlon XP Barton 2800+ at a dual pumped FSB of 400MHz and it runs fine. It should depend on whether your RAM is clocked at 400MHz or not.
