How far do you want to take it? Do you have good cooling? What procesor are you using? More comp background plz. . . But to get you started check out these links. . .
For the pencil trick, which unlocks the multiplyer on your board. . .

For good coolers, check out the www.2cooltek.com and I sugest the Alpha PEP66.
For the voltage mod (if you really wanna get into it) go here

As for actually changing your multipliers and FSB seting, just press del during start up and start crusing around in there, the KT7 comes with some good BIOS software, I belive its softmenu III. Good luck! ;D

Its fairly easy to tweak this board out. Basically, go into bios and start enabling and changing settings so that it runs faster. ie 4-way interleaving on memory, faster ram timings, faster agp settings, etc...

btw, only change 1 or 2 things at a time, so if it freezes or does something else weird, you know what to change to make it work again.

good luck!

Go to the KT7 FAQ at http://www.apushardware.com/faqs/kt7faq/faqmain.html . In the “Trouble Shooting” section go to “Bios” and read. At the end of this section there are links to sites with bios tweaking guides. Lots of good info. With a dedicated evening, you will have your board rocking.
