I am not sure but VIA state that the KM400 chipset is capable of 400mhz fsb
(or 200mhz cpu clock frequency). So the only questions really then are how
fast will the ram go - ie is 188mhz (assuming you are running at a 1:1
ratio) the limit of the pc2700 (or indeed quite a high limit for the 5th pci
divider), or is 2.16ghz the limit available with 1.69v vcore.
Try increasing vcore (if you can from the bios) and seeing how fast it will
go with more vcore. If you can not make adjustments from the bios, all cpu
changes can be made with pin mods/bridge mods (see www.ocinside.de or
www.emboss.co.nz for information on how).
As you state that the default speed of your 2600+ is 1.91ghz that sounds
like a Barton 2600+ with 11.5 multiplier. My old (unlocked) Barton 2500+
prefers to have at least 1.8v vcore to run happily at 2300mhz (11.5 x 200 -
though I run it at 10 x 233).
but all this is assuming the KM400 chipset can do 200mhz fsb (if it is like
the KT400 chipset then 188mhz fsb is extremely good). Failing 200mhz
capability you can in theory unlock the multiplier and set it using the
power now features to get a higher cpu speed.
BTW using all capitals is very hard to read and considered rude and
ignorant - as you are in effect shouting.
