266 front side bus

[littlerichie]

the highest front side bus overclocking ability
that i know of is the AOPEN ak73pro(a)
you can overclock it to 332 mhz
with a cpu that has a 200/266 fsb
important !
i have been told that all of the bridges must be
reconnected properly or you will damage the
mobo

The Duron and Tbird has an internal clock speed of double the FSB (100 x 2 = 200 in the case of the Duron, 133 x 2 = 266 in the case of the Tbird ) so it may be possible to overclock the system to such an extent that the chip internals run that fast but a physical FSB of 332 mhz I am unaware of.
The level 1 bridges only effect the multiplier and the level 7 bridges the voltage supplied to the chip and connecting these does not effect the FSB and neither does failure to connect these potentially damage the mobo from what I am aware of

no! he said all of the L bridges must be reconnected.
L1,L2,L3,L4,L5,L6,L7 `s
he said that he has gotten an ak73pro(a)
up to 1.98 ghz with 332 mhz fsb.

I might be wrong and correct me if I am... but I am still not aware of people being able to run a physical FSB of 332 mhz as doing so would run the system cards at an excessive speed not to mention make them unreliable.
I am also unaware of any Athlon with a internal clock speed of 200 mhz or 266 mhz that overclocks so badly needs a FSB increase of 199 mhz ( 332 mhz claimed FSB - 133 mhz Normal FSB = 199 mhz increase )..
I believe that in this situation there is some confusion as to difference between the internal clock speed of the CPU and the physical FSB.

One thing that I am unaware of is what all the bridges do, can someone elighten me..
L1 = multiplier
L2 =?
L3 =?
L4 =?
L5 =?
L6 =?
L7 = Voltage
