Hey guys, I have the following
AMD 5000+ BE, overclocked to 3250 - 250x13 with 1.4125
mem - 1250mhz, 5-5-5-15-24 at 2.2v (or 2.0 i think)
Basically when I first got this proc, I spent some time messing around with overclocking it, this was my max oc with only a volt increase of 1.35 to 1.375 and ram 1.8 to 2.0, after updating the bios, M3A32-wifideluxe AP, my ax went to 3000, for some reason or another I couldnt get back to that 3250, no matter what.
There is a few things I messed out and either could not find or felt it best to leave them as they were - most on auto.
Now, since updating bios to latest, I easily got this oc back to 3250 (about time)
As I know it was the bios holding me back, I think I can now do more with my current setup.
Here's a few things I missed out,
HT multiplyer, cannot find it in the bios, any clue where? I think if I can change this to x4 making my HT speed 1000 rather than 1250, I will have more room to tweak my oc, as well maybe allowing me to take voltages lower again.
Northbus/bridge(sorry cant remember what its called) voltage, help on this too, dont think I can find it.
ClockSkew, was left to auto, rebooted and whatever its changed auto changed it to, I set that manually.
I tried looking for the AMD overclocking guide on here, but I think because its so old, its been removed? lost... Anyone got any llinks?

Thanks for reading and in advance for all replies.
PS - Why am I overclocking again? simple, its made for overclocking, so why not? Im due an upgrade soon, will most likely wait though, let prices of PII come down with SSD's and 48** gfx, I estimate this will be around 2-4 months? so why not oc for the last few months?
