I can't reach 133 fsb :( I think it might be the ram?? I'm using pc100 generic ram. I don't think its the heat since I use alpha pept with a peltier w/ 2 deltas. Anyone have input of how i can reach 133?? It posts the speed, but locks up when reading the amount of memory.

Get some PC-133 and see what happens, stuff a dime a dozen now a days.

you can get a little higher, but the highest you could realistically expect would 1.13ghz so you have a little bit of room. Mmm, donuts!

Yea ram is so cheap nowadays that it wouldn't make sense not to buy some pc133 and see if you can get a little higher.

pcboost.com has some decent generic 133 modules... but buy at least 2 sticks with the price of shipping, which is almost as much as a stick of the RAM, it's a waste to just order one.
