What kind of OC can I do with this setup?

I'm a total beginner to OCing when it comes to the CPU. I just bought an Epox 8RDA+ still with stock BIOS and an AUIHB stepping of the 2400+. Now the thing is, I only have PC2100 ram and I don't have the cash to upgrade that yet. So is there a possibility of much of an OC here? If so, how should I go upon doing it?
Now I know the multiplier is now at 133 x 15. Should I be lowering the multiplier, bumping up the FSB, and increasing voltages in small increments?

thanks
 
Upping the FSB is likely to cause problems for the memory. Untill you can get some faster RAM, just try increasing the clock multiplier - that way it's only the CPU itself that you are OC'ing.

that's not necessarily true. he could always up his FSB, while still having his ram in sync by using one of the ratios to reduce his ram speed to 133 (pc2100) settings. example, at 166 fsb, he could use a 5:4 memory divider.

hope this helps... good luck! 🙂
