I have a Athlon 750 and a Asus K7V motherbord .
When I want to overclock my CPU I can't change my multipliër in the bios.
Do I have to change it with jumpers or is there another possibility???
Do I have enough with my standard CPU cooler???

Wega!

The only way to change the multiplier is with the jumpers. I have heard that Asus is trying to get the multiplier changing into the bios, but I don't know when it will happen.
What is the name of ur standard cooler?

I have an A7V, and if I remember correctly, if you use the jumper-free mode you don't have the option of setting the multiplier. To do that, I believe that you'll have to unlock the chip and do it with jumpers.

I just bought an A7V133 and it gives you the option to do either, you have 1 MHz increments available in the jumper-free mode along with the multipliers, the FSB options in the jumper mode are limited.

So far I've been having better luck on the A7V133 by way of the jumpers. I had my DURON 600 running stable at 1130MHz, then I ran into a bit of a problem after I installed the NIC, right now running it at 1064MHz, 133*8. In the jumper-free mode the best I could get was 950MHz.
