Just got my P4 1.6A today along with the Gigabyte 8SRX. I haven't recevied the memory yet because I ordered it from a different vendor. Should be here tomorrow though.

Anyways, any tips as far as voltage settings and memory settings? What FSB should I start with, and how high should I go?

Thanks for any tips....

First see how high you can go with the stock voltage, then up the voltage a little and see if U can go higher. Make sure to run a stability test, and check that you're not overheating. Use good thermal paste, everything well seated, follow directions, it should o/c over 2 gigahertz.

Start with 133mhz fsb at default voltage for 2.1ghz at this setting your pci and agp bus will be at normal speed, 99.999% of 1.6a's can do this easily :D
