Athlon XP 2400+/266 - best way to overclock?

Heya! I just got an AMD Athlon 2400+ CPU @ 266Mhz FSB.

I've an Asus A7V8X-X motherboard, with the new BIOS 1.3 (9/04).

What can I try so I can get the CPU to operate at 333MHz FSB?

Thx!

Lower the multiplier and raise the fsb. Or leave the mutli where it is and see if you can bump up the fsb from 133 to 166. Pretty basic procedure.

If the multiplier is locked, make sure you have at least PC2700 DDR SDRAM and
try 2.4 ghz, with 160x15.0. If you go another 6 mhz more, you get 2.5 ghz, 166x15.0, but may be completely unstable.
