Soyo Dragon KT600 and XP-M 2500+ OC: voltage question

[papaschtroumpf]

I have a Soyo Dragon KT600 and I just got an Athlon XP Mobile 2500+ which I would like to run at 3200+ (11x200) since I have PC3500 RAM.

The probelm I have is that the motherboard is not OC friendly in that there are no voltage adjustment whatsoever. In fact the multiplier and FSB are set with dip switches and jumpers 🙁
My question is, does the mobo determine the CPU voltage by looking at the FSB/multiplier combo? I assume that means that it would think my processor is a true Barton 3200+ (also at 11x200) and run it at the normal Barton 3200+ voltage of 1.65V?
Is this a problem for my XP2500+? My guess is that I'd end up in that ballpark anyway even if I had adjustable voltage, maybe a little lower so the OC's processor might run slightly hotter than it could but without being an issue?

OK, so its seems to be running (I forgot to check Vcpu and now it's running memtest 86 so I'll have to check later) but the BIOS and memtest86 report it as an Athlon mobile at 1200MHz
\what gives? I believe I have properly set the FSB to 200 and the multiplier to 11.
I'm not sure how they come up with 1200?

Edit: I can't set voltages manually but the VCORE in the "PC Health" section of the BIOS reports 1.56V

I can't set voltages manually but the VCORE in the "PC Health" section of the BIOS reports 1.56V.
I'm concerned now, it seems that mot people doing this overclock tend to use at least 1.6 for stability.

This has been interesting, I expected the XP-M 2500+ to be treated like a Barton 3200+ by the motherboard at that speed but the motherboard knows it's not a Barton and does... well I'm not sure what, like that 1.56V VCORE.

What version of the motherboard?

I have a Soyo KT600 Dragon Ultra, and it has adjustable voltages.
