Did you have any problems with the Radeon 8500 with the XpP333-R ? I had problems when using 32bit color. I installed an Asus A7V266 and the problem is gone. Now if I could get the DOA Dragon Plus replaced, I'll get back to overclocking. :D

Shuttle pretty much blows. I'll prolly keep it for a month until some of the newer mobos come out.

Well I got the baitch up over 1700 (1713 MHz, 149 FSB) but no thanks to the VIA HO Nexus_7 unless you consider not telling me any BIOS settings a big help. I still think it blows. Takes 1.95v to get there and it only took 1.89v on the XP333R. Typical VIA.

Yeah, It's gettin' there. Tonite was really only the 2nd chance I've had to mess with it. I've been workin' all weekend. I'll post some numbers on MON when I'm off and see if can get it higher. Right now it's at 1713 ( 149 FSB) @ 1.9v and seems stable in limited duty. I think it was an aggressive mem setting that was holding me back initially. DRAM control command was at 1 and now at 2. That got me up to where it's at now ( cas 2, 2t,6t,2t, 4-way etc. ) Mem #'s are higher than the XP333R but the Iwill's a bit higher in Sisoft Multimedia bench so it's not like the XP333R is slow or anything.
