Not much of an overclock but it 100% stable.
ChainTech VNF3-250/BIOS 1.0
3200+ (2.2GHz 512K L2) @ 1.60V
220x11 (2420MHz)

I doubt its the ram, I was running 256MB sticks of Corsair PC3200LL @
220MHz but had to raise the dimmV to 2.8v to get it stable, and with 3
sticks of ram (768MB) the performance dropped so I bought 2*512/PC4000.

Even with the pc3200ll in sync/HT @ 4x I've had the FSB as high as 227
but Prime95 shows an error at anything over about 220. I tried raising
the Chipset voltage a notch, setting HT to 3x, none of that helped. The
newer versions of the BIOS lets you lower the multiplier (but not raise
it), I tried bios 2.0 but that didn't help me get past 220FSB even with
a lower multiplier, so if I go by what prime95 says 220FSB is about it
for my board.
