Hi all,
I just installed the subject mobo and Althon 1.33G into my rig (and also added 256M of DDR pc2100 ECC). All of these parts are from a reputable source (thechipmerchant.com) in my hometown.
For the meantime, I'm allowing the mobo to "auto" the settings for the multiplier, and FSB.
Although my Athlon is a 1.33G, it's "auto"ing it to a 1.00G (10 x 100). I've had a few lockup probs, so I upped the voltage from its default of 1.72 to 1.78 -- and so far I havn't had any further lockups or overheating probs.
Is the preferred (or only) way to get the full speed to use 10 x 133 ?
Secondly, should I expect that 1.78 will be suitable voltage for these settings?
Thirdly, at which temp should I set my CPU alarm to go off?
Thanks very much for your help,

p.s. my power supply is only 235 watts. I hope that isn't an issue, but I'm willing to get a new case or new supply if that's going to be a likely problem. Also, my
