More Information

Hey just put together a new system and wanted to tweak it. Quick run down of system:
MSI KT7 Pro 2A (KT133 Via 4.29 drivers)
AXIA 1ghz CPU (Currently at 13x100 default voltage)
256MB PC133 mem (CL3 ick)
Creative GF2 (det 12.10 running AGP 4x)
SB Live value
WD Expert 27.3 gig 7200 RPM
Raite 8x DVD
Mitsumi4x4x24 CDRW
Hauppage WinTV TV Tuner
2 FA310TX NICs (DSL Sharing)
Slot cooler by video
Fan in front blowing in
Fan in rear (by CPU) exhausting
Two HDD Bay coolers blowing across
Case Temp Max load 78 F
CPU Max load 121 F
Max load is Running 3d Mark 2k1 overnight

Ok what can I do to tweak this?
Video Questions:
Do things like Fastwrites, Sideband addressing and various settings like that help when enabled/disabled?
CPU Questions:
When using WCPUID I show 12.5x103.95 eventhough bios says 13x100? I would like to go higher in FSB instead of multiplier but KT133 chipsets stink for that... Also when using 3DMark2k1 1ghz seems to run just as well as 1.3ghz (possible because of no FSB Increase?)
Windows ME:
Any tweaks out there that have helped you?
Please let me know any information is appreciated
