Well it took a little work and tweaking with BIOS settings but I have my 333 fsb Athlon XP2600+ running at 2397 Mhz. I'm using a KT333 board without a 1/5 divider (shame on you SOYO) so in order to OC without losing data due to an OC'd PCI bus I cut the 5th L3 bridge to access the higher multipliers. I upped the CPU voltage to 1.85 and the RAM voltage to 2.7 and now am running the CPU with a multi of 17 and an FSB of 141 (282) and a Memory FSB of 174 (348). 2397 Mhz and stable. I"m using just AIR COOLING with a coolermaster HHC-001 hsf with heat pipes. full load CPU temp is 47 C. :clap:

My only question, are my CPU and RAM gonna die a quick death due to the overvoltage.:confused
 
The voltages don't look that bad, but it will shorten the life of your CPU, no doubt. Probably not that much though.
