Processor: XP 1700+ rev. B
Mobo: Epox 8RDA+
RAM: PNY 512MB PC2700
Stock CPU Temps: 34/37 (idle/100% util)
Stock Sys Temps: 33/36
OC experience: none
from what i've gathered so far, it seems I should go about it like this:
1. raise FSB
2. raise multiplier
3. raise voltage, go back to 1 (or 2?)
doing stability tests after every adjustment. Should I adjust by smallest increments possible? if so, it sounds like it will take a loooong time to reach the 2+ gig that people have been posting. well, if I run prime95 for 6hrs every time, that is. also, what can I expect as a moderate OC? particularly would the FSB go over 166Mhz? would the RAM hold me back? If so, should I increase RAM speed at the expense of RAM timings? Everything is done via system bios, right? Should I leave voltage alone (it's at 1.61v according to bios)?
