I would flash to the new one just incase...odds are it will not have the latest one installed...now it might have the offical 400Mhz BIOS...but I seriously doubt it will have the latest one though...

with latest bios you can select 200fsb... i noticed it when i was playing with it
although you might have problems running 100% insync with memory... everyone knows about the vdd mod...
that's all i have to say

i would say you hit 11x200 or 11.5x200
almost instantly
11x200 i run at 1.85 volts
you can try maube 1.75... since you will be having a new stepping
11.5x200 takes 1.9 volts for me
try something like 1.8 volts or more
with your new stepping you should hit something like 2.4
thats my guess...
what cpu fan you order with you hs?
