Q's about O/C XP 2100+ on MSI K7N2G-ILSR

[Woodie]

This is my first time o/cing an Athlon, so I have a few questions...
I'm currently running at 147 FSB x 13 multiplier for 1911MHz (vs. 1733 stock) w/ OEM cooling:
Full Load temps: CPU=53C, system=40C

1. Is there any way to get a higher CPU multiplier than 13 on this motherboard? Or is that dependant on "unlocking" my 2100+?
2. I've read that IGP versions of this mobo won't take the FSB above 180, is that true?
3. Is there a way to overclock the IGP?
4. And a repeat of the famous question, what's the quietest, better than OEM HSF combo for this mobo? Keep in mind that there are no mobo mounting holes, only the clip, and no water/peltier solutions.

TIA,

Well, nobody replied, and this is where I'm at now:
FSB:163
RAM/FSB: Auto
CPU Multiplier: 13
Vram 2.6
Vcore auto
Vagp 1.5

Results:
CPU: 2129.9 Mhz
FSB: 163.8
RAM bus: 327.7
CPU full load: 53 C
NorthBridge(?): 49 C
System: 42 C
Vcore: about 1.58. Quite a bit of variation here.

1. NOPE
2. NOT ture, I am on 10X200 W/ XP1700.
3. Not quite sure if increase AGP bus speed is what you looking for. But why?
4. I use Dr.Thermal's HS and 60/80mm adopter w/ 80mm fan to make it super quiet.

Side note:
Lower your clocker multiplier and increase FSB.
Increase your Vcore say...no more than 1.75V.
I am almost certain you can run more than 2.1Ghz. (If I use 166FSB, even my xp1700 run 12.5X166= 2.075Ghz)
ILSR temp read bit higher due to it internal d**** But 40 degree mobo temp seem bit too high.

Thanks for the input..

See the second post, I'm currently at CPU: 2130 MHz, so I'm pretty pleased with that.

3. Speeding up the MX4-class video would be nice.

OK, I'll try lowering the CPU multiplier and your other suggestion.

Re: Mobo temps...I haven't hooked up the front (/intake) fan yet, and I have an air intake right next to the CPU...I was thinking of ducting it to the top of the HSF. It'll give me something to do tonight after the kids are in bed.
