Looking for a mild to moderate OC of a 3000+ 333FSB Barton core.
I also have a ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe
512 MB of Corsair DDR400
Thermaltake "Polo 735" big-azz HSF

Can someone throw out some sample settings that will not f anything up on my system?

First of all is your CPU unlocked?? :rolleyes:
If yes set a small multiplier divider to memories (see my FAQ on sign) and try to find your CPU limits........
Don' t set small timings while searching CPU limits......
Your mainboard has chipset goal around 220 - 224 FSB.....
After that you can set 1:1 memory divider and find memory limits.
 
I would think no on the chip being unlocked...I've got the chip now (all the rest is waiting on Newegg) and it seems to have the locked-out-goo-layer on it.

As for the cooling it's a Thermaltake Polo 735 HSF.

500W PSU if it matters.

I would keep the vcore in the 1.7-1.75 range, and just see how high you can push the FSB and maintain stability. My guess is somewhere between 170 and 180.
