OCing my P4 2.6C

Got my new system together, ASUS P4C800-E, P4 2.6C and 1 Gig Mushkin PC3500 Level 2 Black RAM. Wanted to know how I can OC this to at least 3.2.

How do I get 5:4, 3:2, or 1:1? Is that under DRAM Frequency? The choices I get are 266Mhz, 320Mhz, 400Mhz and Auto.
My current CPU temp is 33C idle, haven't seen full load yet. Also, should I lock my AGP/PCI at 66/33 or leave it at auto?

Thanks,
NORE

Any help plz?

Thx,

NM, got it to 3.2Ghz [246FSB] stable so far, thanks to JKeefe for the help.

If anybody cares, here's my WCPUID. Might try and push it further tomorrow.

How do you know it's stable. Did you Primed it?

U almost figured it out yourself. 5:4 = 320mhz; 3:2 = 266mhz; 1:1 = 400mhz

I would lock your PCI/AGP at 66/33 at first and see where it takes u. But u can always try other frequencies to see where it takes u but I recomment keeping it at 66/33.

Overclocking your 2.6c to 3.2ghz is *ALMOST* a guarantee. Shouldn't take too much homework to get it up that far. The real trick is to get it higher than that. Like say 3.6ghz.

Yea, I primed it.

Oh I see, I'll leave it like this for a week or so then up it a bit more after that. heh
