Just wondering what the results are going around.
I've got a:
Thunderbird 750
PC 133 CAS 3 256MB stick(Micron Chips, Generic Board)
ASUS A7V133
yada.....

Right now I'm running at 6x150@1.8 volts. I don't know how far its safe to push the bus speed, but I'm sticking with 150 until I know otherwise. (also the even 900 looks better)

Anyone else got some numbers?

Im running 7x150... Ive tested up to 154 but then one of my cards is giving out, Im not going to pull out my cards to test higher since I couldnt care if it can go higher if my PCI cards cant take it.

T-Bird 800@1050 1.85Vcore
Asus A7V133
Mosel PC133 Rev2 (150 Cas2 right now)

I've run my set up at 155MHz, but I'm currently at 6x150MHz. I can run at a reduced voltage which keeps things cool, and I don't have the best of cooling. Seems fast and rock solid at 150MHz. At 155MHz I have to run my ram at cas3.

I want 150 sooo bad. Win2k throws a hissy fit for anything higher than 147. :(

I know theres more people out there with the kt7a running at 150+. Whats your bios setup?

Seems like this chipset is doing quite well.. I've managed to get 5.5x151 which I'm running right now, since at 900mhz (6x150)my T-Bird had trouble getting outta stand-by and doing software reboots after a long hard run.
Maybe a little more cooling in time to come.

ronin, try one stick only of the compuwiz stuff, thats what i've got. You might have one stick that won't cut the mustard.

I think its the mushkin.. actually I was never able to get it this high before. I just think its windows 2000 since it checks hardware stability more. Any of you doing all this with Win2k?

Maybe I should try it Fast cas2 or turbo cas3..

Or not mess with it at all seeing my system is so stable
