Here are the specs:

AXP Mobile 2400+ 35 watt IGYHA 0402SPMW
Abit NF7-S v2.0 w/ D26 Manta Rays XT CPC off
PDP/Patriot Systems PC3200LLK 2x512mb 2-3-2-5
Sparkle FSP530-60GNA
SP-97 w/ Panaflo H1B

External Clock: 220MHz
Multiplier Factor: x12.0

Vcore: 1.8v
VDim: 2.9v
Vdd: 1.6v
Vagp: 1.7v

Row-active delay: 6
RAS-to-CAS delay: 3
Row-precharge delay: 3
CAS Latency time: 3

If you look at the 12 volt line it looks a little low. Could this be limiting my overclock, because it is adjustable? Also what timing should I loosen to raise the FSB? Thanks.

if your 12v line goes below 11.5 at load, more than likely you're gonna get errors..... also since you're on an NF7 set your Row-Active Delay to 10 or 11. See if that gets you any extra stability.
 
So what your saying is that on NF7-S platform it is more stable to have 10 or 11 Row-Active Delay?
 
It's more stable and it also increases performance. It's a quirk of the nForce2 chipset.

You have a great PSU, and it actually does have adjustable pots. You could increase the 12v rail if you want to. But DON'T even think about doing it unless you're using a DMM to measure your voltages. MBM5 and other onboard sensors are far too innacurate for pot adjusments, or even knowing where your voltages are.
 
Very interesting, I will give it a try and report the findings. What is the best way to find a performance increase in the adjustment, i.e. 3dmark2003, pcmark2004?
