P4T-E Overclock

Does anyone have experience overclocking a P4T-E?

I'm new at this. I've slowly been raising my FSB and now have it at
112 and everything has been fine at 2.91 gzh and 54c temp under max
load. I understand if I raise the FSB much further I will have issues
with my ram and pci cards...? Could someone tell me from experience
how far this system can be overclocked? and how/when do I need to deal
with the ram/pci issues with this specific motherboard (i dont see any
place to raise voltage or alter pci speeds, am I missing it?)

mb: Asus P4T-E
cpu: P4 2.6gzh 400fsb (northwood?)
ram: rdram800 4 x 256


Thanks in advance

Yes, and it runs fine

I have a 1.8 GHz P4 running at 2.16 GHz, by raising the FSB to 120.
This gives me a perfectly stable system with the P4 going to 52 - 56 øC
(depends on the temp of the room it's in <g>) at full load for 15
hours. And i have the processor fan regulated down to below 1500 rpm
under these conditions.

I had to switch the keyboard from PS/2 to USB to get to this FSB. A
little bit higher is possible but then the pc gets instable after
running for sevceral hours at full load.
