hi, just wondering how far can you overclock a 2100+ Athlon proccessor, i can change the fsb to 333 and the multiplyer and voltage i only have stock cooling at the moment. my mobo is a ASRock V7VT4-4X.

I am currently running the processor at default 133*13.

if it is a t-bred core and a decent stepping you can push it around 2.4

i had one at 172 fsb and 2443 mhz for a while at about 1.75v

ymmv because of the ram, stepping, etc.

best thing to do if your memory will support it is kick it to 166 fsb and then play with the multiplier assuming that you're unlocked

let us know how you do!

not sure about the type of proccesor (ill have to check that) definatly locked though, but the ram is "PC2700".

think ill try 145*13 first then something in the 150s

What Kind of Ram are you using? PC133 or DDR2100? If PC133 you'll probably not get anywhere with it.
