I screwed up quite a bit while overclocking my system, so I'm going back to basics.
I started out at 10.5x166 with my 1800+ and Micron PC2700 ram. All was good.
I'm currently at 179 FSB - started getting prime95 errors at 183, so i've backpedaled to find the sweet spot. I upped the Vdimm to 2.77 and still couldn't get 183 FSB stable.
Am I being held back by my memory or the NB? CPU is at 42C at load, so I don't think the processor is maxxed (currently 1879 mhz).
Ignore the numbers in the sig, though the hardware remains the same.
