What Family

[rlong]

I have a P4 2.53Ghz on an asus p4p800 deluxe.

I don't know if its an A, b, or c family P4. How can I find out?

It's a b.

Is that good or bad?
It seems I can only get it up to 2.79 GHZ before it crashes on post.

2.53B is fine. It might top out at 2.79GHz though. Still, you can try overclocking it farther by increasing vCore. Also make sure you're not overclocking your memory too far, try setting it as 266MHz and when you overclock your CPU to 2.79GHz, your RAM will be running at DDR294.
