help on overclocking

i trying to overclock my Athlon 2200+ but i can't figure out how to change the multiplier or voltage from the bios, the only thing i know is how to change the FSB: 169/133 = 2255mhz i think i might be doing it wrong, from what i red, the cpu temperature almon other things should increase, but they remain the still according to speedfan

What motherboard are you using? I know that overclocking depends on several things, and one of those being the type of motherboard. I know on my Asus P4P800 Deluxe, there are settings like Overclock 10%, 20%, 30 % or manual. Currently I have mine set on 20%. You can also check out and go to their forum and find what people have overclocked their CPU's to with ur same motherboard and cooling system as well.

it's a ecs k7vta3

change my fsb to 169 is still overclocking, right? but, will changing the voltage/multiplier allow me to overclock more or are those just different ways to overclock? if change my fsb is overclocking, why hasn't the cpu temp increase at all? (not that i'm complaining)

allows you to modify the fsb (and the agp bus speed) on the fly (without restarting your computer). i tried it and changed my fsb from 167 to about 176 (1.8G to 2G). and it worked nicely. you'll also find on the link i posted a tool called which, among others, benchmark your pc for few items. also, on the genClock page is a tool called to show your current fsb and related clock. all the tools are very nice and free. make sure the genClock that you download matches your board/chipset.

is my fsb limited to the speed of my memory (ddr333 = 166), if i upgrade to ddr400, will i be able to achieve an higher fsb (maybe all the way up to 199), i'd got up 172 for about an hour when i first started, now it's unstable over 169
