well i just got my new rig today and im keen to get some overclocking done. problem is this is the first A64 i have ever looked at and i know nothing about them. been doing some reading over the last few days in the forums and got some tips and so on but i kinda wanna know some basic things of what i can expect out of my system. what i have is.

Epox 9NPA+ Ultra
3200+ Venice (forgot to get the stepping code :bang head )
2x 512mb OCZ Premium 7-3-32.5 stock timings

so a few tips id like to know is basically.
what sort of FSB can i get out of this board? id like to just run a stable system on air cooling.
what kind of FSB and multi should i run with this chip? and also whats a safe voltage?
also how much can i expect out of this ram?

having said that what i have done so far is.

was running 265mhz fsb with ram running on 133 and vcore on 1.65v prime 95 failed first test every time but i was playing games fine and benchmarking fine. i have managed to get my ram running up to 225mhz on 1:1 with my CPU without anymore voltage and was running games fine.

so yeh if anyone knows what i can do to get the best stable OC on this without going overbaord id be very happy. theres lots of things in these new A64 and nforce 4 boards i just dont understand even after spenind hours of reading :bang head

well thanks heaps for any tips you can gimme.
