I'm just toying with OCing just recently (first time yesterday actually) and have a few questions. Guess i'll get my system stuff out of the way first
A7N8X
AMD 2800+ XP Barton
Radeon 9700pro
2x256 PC2700 ram
What i gathered from reading here for a bit is that pc 2700 runs @ 166 fsb. If i were to drop the multiplyer (12.5 default) and raise the fsb, will my ram be fine for a while, while i bump up the fsb? i had it up to 175 fsb and 12.5x for a while and it ran fine in games and playing music, but my whole system crashed while doing the loop on 3dmark2001se. Stock voltage too. Any help would be appreciated :]
Or would it be just plain safer to move to pc3200?
oh ya stock cooling too

bloops!
