im thinking of buying a pentium m-740 1.73ghz 533fsb cpu(or a p4m-730 1.6) with a p4p800-se mb with the asus c-479 adapter.
how much of an overclock can i expect to have with 333mhz samsung ram(1gb or 2gb?) and whats the best way to do it?(i dont have much exps in oc)

You know that Aopen now has a full-sized 915 desktop chipset board supporting all Socket 479 (P-M) processors? The reason I mention that is, it could save you money verses a board plus adapter, and probably has overclocking features not found in the board+adapter option.

just google it, and yes it does have more voltage options, but it has same problem as the Asus adaptor, you cannot use standard socket479 heatsink. You'll need to modify the mounting to get bigger heatsink or waterblock on.
