What FSB overclock can I expect from KT7-RAID?

The limit of your FSB is not only limited by the mobo but by the memory and components of the system.. I believe however that the KT7A-Raid maximum FSB is about 166 mhz ( I run mine at 140 mhz without any problems )

You got the non 133A chipset version. I had the KT7-R version also and was only able to get it up to 118 with a single 128 stick of Crucial PC 150. The boards based on Via's older KT133 chipset were notorious for not being able to reach 133 FSB. Heres an excellent link that deals specifically with your board.

Opps guess I mis-read the title.. mudguts is correct ( I thought you had the KT7A and thats why I gave you the previous information, sorry )

118? wow, good job, the most I've been able to get is about 110-115, although it wasn't very stable.

You're unlikely to get anything beyond 110 MHz, if you even get that high.

I have this board and can get to 105 or 107, but it is not very stable.

I have mine at 110(x12) on a 1.2Ghz
It is absolutely stable w/ generic 133 CAS 3 256mb chip
other timings at medium
enhance chip on

Yeah , I was lucky it got there without any special tweaks but I wanted more so I sold it to a buddy of mine and got the 133A version and it runs good at 140. I havent tried any higher yet.....oh but I will!

My KT7A-R is running at 146 perfectly stable (7x146).
