150MHz FSB Possible?

[kohrah]

Has anyone gotten up to 150MHz FSB on a TBird or Duron? If so, what mobo/cpu did you get, multipliers/voltage, and cooling did you use to achieve it?

I've heard that most if the KT133A boards will get up to 155-160. As soon as I hook up my new 1.2 Ghz processor I am going to start dropping the multiplier and raising the FSB and see how high I can take it. I don't think I will have any problems getting it that high.

Cool! Here's what I have, what do you think I should do for the multiplier (if anything) to get 150MHz FSB to work? I have an Asus A7V133 and a Duron 700MHz. I have some Corsair PC133 SDRAM, so hopefully it'll overclock OK. The CPU has a ThermalTake Volcano 2, and the case has 2 Panaflo 120mm fans. I also have the Vantec chipset cooler on the Northbridge/Southbridge.

all of anand's boards he reviewed got only to 147... i think i tried 149 or 150 and it didnt post (a7v133), the system doesnt have everything in it so its just at 147 until i tweak it out a bit more

I have made it to 158fsb but tended to get errors but 155fsb was solid...


BTW it was not worth much testing with 3dMark2001... (about 40points more is all) Running at 117fsb and kicking the memory up almost did the same...???

Is this Bubba-1 you are talking about? What multiplier did you end up using for the TBird?

I normaly run it at 11X117 with the memory @157mhz but that is at default voltage... 1.75 I seem to have no problem running any multiplier I want, the best performace and stablility does seem to also be at default voltage... BTW this is a Compuwiz1 chip...
