that is so far, 1.725vcore, maybe ill try 1.75 with 195fsb...i dont know if my hard drive/lan card will enjoy that kind of bus speed...i hope it doesnt kill my drive

Maybe I dont know what Im talkin about.. but I dont think you should be going to 195fsb... (if you can).. with KT333... I have KT400, and someone told me not to go over 190fsb.. Maybe Im wrong though.. I dunno.. Im new..

ive done 203 just fine, but with a different chip...so i dunno, maybe that will change it

This has been discussed before and unfortunately, the TBred and KT333 are not 100% compatible. Almost everyone w/ a kt333 mobo and a tbred chip have problems running at FSB speeds from 182 and higher. Some ppl bottom out at 182fsb, I've been lucky enough to be able to run at 192fsb.

I was able to run at 208fsb w/ my pally but not with the tbred. I confirmed it when I replaced the tbred w/ my XP1600 last weekend and was able to run at 208fsb again.

If you can raise yor multi, you can still max out your o/c. I'm still able to run at 2640mhz but with at lower FSB speed.

Might be time for a mobo upgrade.

well what hardrive do you have? my western digital could do 185 only but i have seen maxtors that seem completly unaffected by any fsb change

 

[Wega!]

Hmm, I've been running 192MHz FSB for about a week now no problems. I both Maxtor and WD HD's.

I can't go out of spec at all or my Maxtor corrupts. If I go to 167 , I get a file missing or corrupt when windows tries to load.

hkgonra, when I have had that problem usually it is a memory problem and not a hard drive problem. Have you checked you memory and it's settings, try memtest86 on it at 167 FSB, and see what it tells you.

 

[hkgonra]

I tried memtest on it but not over 166. I have Mushkin pc3200 it should be ok shouldn't it ? I thought mushkin was top-notch stuff ?

195? Not bad, 200 corrupted my HD.
