I am just curious.
How far can I push my PC3200 TwinMOS ram.
Would it go any higher?

Oh so there is a bit of leway.
I shall try and oc my new chip tonight, hopefully my barton won't hit a wall at 200, I'd like to go over that and reach something like 2.3ghz. But somepeople say that my asus craps out at anything above 201FSB... But thats only meant to be revisions less then 2.0 and I have a 2.0 thank god.

yeh, that was an issue a few months ago/their latest bios's apparently corrected their divider issues as well

How will I know if I push the ram too far?
I don't want a bill for some new RAM, is their any way to know the limit before it destroys itself?

drop to 3:2 (266 Mhz) divider.
Your CPu will max out before your memory, then you can work from there

He has a AXP board, you never want to run an AXP board with a devider, it will be terrible for the performance. Keep it 1/1.
