I did it. I don't know how, though. When I unlocked my 1 Ghz Tbird, I could have it 11*100 and it would okay, but I couldn't bump the FSB up a notch without problems. Now, I am at stock + 110 FSB. So, in your opinion, which would be better?

11*100
OR
10*110

Thanks!

Since you got MSI K7T Pro2-A I would say 8*133 (1066) would outperform both of those, and your PCI and AGP bus will not be out of specs. That is a great source for instabilities. You could also try 8.5*133 (1133) if you prefer (slight overclock, should be no sweat).

10x110 will have better performance, since everything is OCed 10%.. but of course it might introduce instability. at 11x100 only your CPU is OCed. everything stays the same.

pbox,

That board will not support 133 mhz FSB, on those you are lucky to hit 110.

If you are not craving for FPS in quake3 or cracking RC5 then you wont notice the difference, hell you would'nt notice the difference going from 1 ghz -> 2 ghz

Thanks for the responses! I tried 111 FSB, and I could get into Windows, but I couldn't play Unreal Tournament for long.

you're probably thinking of the turbo. that has the 133 FSB.

Weyland: 10x110 will be faster, because everything in your board is running faster due to the increased FSB.

pbox: The MSI K7T Pro2A isn't a KT133A board. That's the K7T Turbo. There is no way the Pro2A will do 133MHz FSB, the highest anyone's been able to get a KT133 stable is about 119-120MHz, and that's extremely rare, most barely do 110.
