I just bought a Celeron 633 and a new DFI CA64-EN motherboard. Really nice board, has given me 0 problems which I like, but now I want to OC. I cannot change my voltage because on DFI boards they Autodetect thevoltage, *however* DFI has assigned 1.76v to my cpu not 1.7. Its the way they do things I guess. That gives me a bit of headroom. I NEED HELP!!. There is a setting in the bios that allows me to change my FSB between 66-99mhz. Why not 100 I hve no clue. Anyhow, I have set it to 70 and whatever, and the processor still stays at 633. Its like that dosn't do anything! I wanna OC this 633 to ATLEAST 700-800. Thanks.

I've built a few DFI systems and generally their a rock stable board which runs for a long time, however not an OC favorite. They usually have the 3 settings (66/100/133) and maybe a couple in between, but not much else. Any chance you can take it back? I know the board is fairly inexpensive, but if you intend to OC you're not going to have much luck.

some mainboards have a setting or jumper that sets the fsb to "high" or "low", low is for below 100mhz bus, and high is for 100mhz setups...and if you set it to high, it still might detect your default speed, but might also give you the option to go above 66mhz.
Hope this helps
