My friend just got a thorton 2000+/ecs combo from frys and he would like to get some more fsb out of it. Are there any overlocking options on it, or through a third party bios? He would like to get it to 333mhz fsb. Thanks.

If the thornton normally runs at 166 fsb, that's the highest setting he should use. This board wasn't designed to overclock. I returned number 4 (that's right, I tried 4 different k7vta3's from Fry's) as it wouldn't post consistantly with a duron 1600 at any setting (100,133, or 166). If it did post, it was very stable while running the duron at 166 (2000).
