I have just built a new computer and i want to over clock it as much as possible and was wondering what is the best way to go about this. The fsb increase or the multiplier. And was wondering how i should set the bios on my board to get the most out of my hardware. Here is what i have

-Enlight mid atx case (with 2 fans)
-300 watt sparkle power supply(amd aproved)
-1 gig tb with l1 bridges closed
-globalwin fop32-1 cpu fan
-abit kt7 raid md
-kingmax 256 pc 150 ram
-generic 256 pc 133 ram (supposedly tested for this board but will be removing it before i try to increase performance and putting back in after system is stable)
-2 ibm 30gb ultra 100ata hard drives
-sound blaster live
-Winfast Geforce2 gts 32mb with tv out(has a huge heat sink on the card)
Kingston 10/100 network card
Mitsumi cd rom and floppy

I seem to experience lock up problems when i turn on the 4xagp and was wondering if anyone else has had this problem. I also have the latest bios for the mb and all my drivers are the latest version. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

You want to use both the multiplier and fsb. You will perhaps not get very high fsb 105-115mhz is typical for the KT133 chipset. However high fsb is good performance.

So you just start upping multiplyer until you cannot get into windows or your machine doesnt boot. Then you can increse the cpu core voltage and try again. Then find the optimal combination of multiplier and fsb speed that your system runs stable at..
