This MB has 2 dip switches, one for multiplier, the other for FSB.
FSB dip switch has 5 switches, it can give 32 different settings, but malual describes only 11 of them. Someone tried "undocumented" settings on this board and can describe them?
Is it possible to set pci/cpu multiplier higher than 4? My AGP card can't work when fsb is over 140 MHz...

[Duron 750@933, 133*7, 1.725 V, 60C loaded]

looks like a nice mobo! i checked out Soltek's website and they said this
Other Features
Multiplier Setting RedStorm Overclocking
BIOS FSB Setting Ultra ATA 66/100
BIOS Vcore setting AC'97 Audio Function
DIMM Voltage Setting H/W Monitor
SmartDoc. Anti-burning Shield PC 133 compliant

Bios FSB Settings? I thought you said it was all jumpers? maybe a combo deal. go to those 11 and then up them by 1-5Mhz giving you 55 different fsb. I would read all the review on the main product page maybe they have more info. http://www.soltek.com.tw/English/home/01.htm

Yes, BIOS can change FSB in 1 MHz steps... max can be 178 MHz... :-) and frequencies 124 MHz and higher have cpu/pci multiplier 4 instead of 3
Problem is: can I set this multiplier higher with dip switches or something else? When higher than 142-143 MHz AGP graphic card can't work...
Soltek is good for overclocking, my Duron can work at 980 MHz stable (Prime 95 ok) but I have set it lower because of high temperature (don't want to work higher than 60 C)
