duron 600@1050, But want FSB higher than 100

Hey hoot does your ram do 150 2-2-2 stable?

Yes, but I have to run the multiplier at 9 (unacceptable).

I can't go over 138 with out getting some CMOS check sum error and I am too scared to try again. should I close the L7's or modify the L6's to give me a lower multiplier at boot up?

Sure you can do that, but I've never gotten my 600 Duron to run reliably above 137 FSB, nor reliably above 1100 Mhz either. I probably could have with water cooling, but before I'd dump that kind of money just to OC a Duron, I'd buy a 1.33 Tbird.

how high voltage should I push a duron?

There's could and there's should. You could run your Duron as high as 2.3V. I have done that, but above a certain point (2.1V for mine), the additional voltage just gives you a higher temperature and no more stability. That takes you back to the issue of spending big money on cooling.

for the 1050 is nice but I would bet your memory scores would improve a lot at 7.5x133 if it can handle it.
