New to P4 OCing, need some help/ tips.

Ok 1st I will post the system info and ask some question.

- SOYO P4I 845PE LITE
- P4 2.4BGHz 533FSB 478PIN/512K
- ASUS 32MB MX400
- GEIL 256MB PC-2700
- HD 40GB SEAGATE HD
- LITE-ON 52x24x52
- Sony 16x
- 400W ICute PSU
- Speeze P4 Heatsink (says EE415C5 LeopardClaw on box)
- Rounded Cables and so on


Right now i bumped the CPU to 2.53ish GHz. The FSB is like 140-142. The temp for the CPU is 45ºC on full load folding. The mobo does have the PCI/AGP fix where the speed for the AGP/PCI are a fixed value. So how should I go along OCing higher? I want to know stuff like how high I can get without raising the VCore but I will raise RAM. How hihgh of a FSB I can run. Then maybe some info on if I raise the VCore what OC could I expect and so on. If I plan to raise VCore I will put a faster fan on the heatsink since its a low rpm/quiet fan..

Sorry for all the questions I am a TOTAL newb when it comes to a INTEL chip past the PIII Slot 1 chips, lol. Thanks in advance.


I think this is the stepping info correct me if I am wrong thx.
