How is the Asus Asus A7A266 for overclocking?


Because after I get My Radeon ( which will be in a few weeks hopefully ) I will then get the Hercules game theater XP...which I will sell an Athlon Slot A 550 and a soyo slot a mobo to help get. I may make teh move to DDR..maybe...but I want to still use my pc100 memory that hits 150 at cas 2, This board has ddr and sdram support. So how is it for overclocking I plan on kepping my 1gig 266 tbird.

No multiplier adjustments. You can pick up a Soyo K7ADA, Ali Magik 1 chipset DDR mobo for $107 with multiplier adjustment DIP switches for $107.

Yes there are Multiplier adjustments on the new ones - and they are a very stable performer.

But the ALi MaGiK 1 chipset is poor and I'd rather opt for an AMD 760 true DDR board and buy some good PC2100. It saves wasting all of your money on the ALi dross.
