Hi there.
I've an AMD Athlon Xp 2500+ cpu and was wondering if it was possible to oc it to 2.5 GHz only by increasing the multiplier?
Yestarday for the first time i decided to go to my bios and change the multiplier to 13 which change my cpu speed to 2.1GHz, i left the rest on auto(the Vcore setting change automatically from 1.65 to 1.80). Temp. increase about +4 C. and windows xp booted fine but since i'm planning on buying more fans soon i changed it back to 1.8GHz.
The reasing i'm asking if it is possible to increase only the multiplier(to 15 or 16) is because i'm not sure about increasing the fsb.......do i increase only the fsb or do i have to change other settings when increasing the fsb?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

p.s. i have an A7V8X-X motherboard and 256mb pc2700.
