How far can u Oc with this board?

Question

Title speaks for itselve.
Mine AMD64 3000+(CG) max oc of FSB215 ([email protected]) - bios 1.1 - Corsair twinx xms 1024mb pc3200LL  

Answer 1

I stopped messing around with it at 215x11 and 4HT with 1:1 due to being sick of reseting the BIOS all the time.
I read on this board all sorts of advice and they seem to contradict at times.  Some say to not bother with stepping down the memory and to keep it 1:1 while other say to increase the FSB regardless and lower the ratio to keep the memory at stock speed (Since I have PC3200 KingstonVR type).  I haven't really tried that yet because I maxed out at 235 (1:1) before it gave me the BSOD and I tested 3DMark03 around 230 with hardly any difference then my setting at the start of my post.
Some advice says to not bother relaxing memory timings since you need and want them to be as low as they can go anyway.  I already have that on mine so the only thing left is to up the clock (FSB) and mess with the HT frequency multiplier.
BTW - about the HT setting?  as you increase the clock what should we shoot for as the end number?  is it 1600Mhz (FSB*HT freq multiplier*2???)  It seemed to not make a difference in my top FSB reading wether the HT multiplier was at 4x or 2x.  Not sure what is going on there.
My memory goest to DDR430 at 215 but the moment I raise above 215 it resorts to close to ~204Mhz as reported in memtest86.  Would you keep it at 215 to keep the DDR430 or raise FSB to let the memory go back to DDR400?
I am new to all this so that is why my questions are many...
