Who's got the fastest P3 733MHz?

Just built a system...P3 733MHz FCPGA on an Asus CUSL2 mobo. I want to know *anyone* who has the fastest overclocked but stable system. I want to decide whether it's worth overclocking, if so, to what should I overclock my system.

Thanks.
 
Overclocking is generally done with the 100MHz based CPUs since there is a lot of headroom for the PCI/AGP buses to max out at around 150/160. And since the multiplers on EB chips is lower, the actual percentage gain is a lot less if the FSB increase is the same. But one guy on that site claimed he got a 193 FSB and stable at stock cooling. Is that even possible? 🙂. Oh well - a bunch of people have gotten up to the 900 mark, so as long as your memory and PCI cards can handle the stress, you can probably squeeze at least another 150 out of that system. G'luck! 😉
 
so far I didnt have any trouble oc'ing a p3550e and a p3700e with a 150 fsb just needs some tlc and a good hsf 😎

 
I have a 550e, what a great chip, it thinks it's a p3733eb anyway. It doesn't heat up at all with the stock hsf. I assume I probably could get to 150 mhz if I didn't have a bx board with it.
